Full Retreat

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or retreat:

    “Out, out, brief candle.
    Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
    And then is heard no more. It is a tale
    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
    Signifying nothing.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “When we retreat to the country, we are hiding not from people, but from our pride, which, in the city and among people, operates unfairly and immoderately.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
