Hours Long

Famous quotes containing the words hours and/or long:

    What though my wingèd hours of bliss have been,
    Like angel-visits, few and far between?
    Thomas Campbell (1777–1844)

    One of the ministers of Truro, when I asked what the fishermen did in the winter, answered that they did nothing but go a- visiting, sit about, and tell stories, though they worked hard in summer. Yet it is not a long vacation they get. I am sorry that I have not been there in winter to hear their yarns.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
