Famous quotes containing the words time and/or thief:
“We disparage reason.
But all the time it’s what we’re most concerned with.
There’s will as motor and there’s will as brakes.
Reason is, I suppose, the steering gear.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Trousers and the reputation of not being a thief are similar in the following way: There is no particular honor in having them but once they are lost, everyone thinks they have the right to insult us.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
