Hours Long

Famous quotes containing the words hours and/or long:

“Night is a dead monotonous period under a roof; but in the open world it passes lightly, with its stars and dews and perfumes, and the hours are marked by changes in the face of Nature. What seems a kind of temporal death to people choked between walls and curtains, is only a light and living slumber to the man who sleeps afield.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

“I have long been of the opinion that if work were such a splendid thing the rich would have kept more of it for themselves.”
