Hour Lines

Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or lines:

“Ah God! that it were possible
For one short hour to see
The souls we loved, that they might tell us
What and where they be. . . .”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

“To understand
The signs that stars compose, we need depend
Only on stars that are entirely there
And the apparent space between them. There
Never need be lines between them, puzzling
Our sense of what is what.”
—John Hollander (b. 1929)
