Famous quotes containing the word length:

    “those far-fet helps be such
    As do bewray a want of inward touch,
    and sure at length stolen goods do come to light.
    But if, both for your love and skill, your name
    You seek to nurse at fullest breasts of Fame,
    Stella behold, and then begin to indite.”
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
