Hours Long

Famous quotes containing the words hours and/or long:

“Just getting in the pool for seven straight hours is unbearable to me.... It’s grueling. There’s nothing physically pleasurable about it. If you’re doing a hard workout, you’re throwing up in the gutter. At night you cling to your pillow and just hope that your body revives before you have to go back and do it again.”
—Diana Nyad (b. 1949)

“It never worked for me.
Something to do with violence
A long way back, and wrong rewards,
And arrogant eternity.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
