Late

Famous quotes containing the word late:

    The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night.
    Howard Brenton (b. 1942)

    “Men there were and men there be
    But never men so many
    Chief enough to marry me,”
    Thought the proud late Annie.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    “Seven years and six months!” Humpty Dumpty repeated thoughtfully. “An uncomfortable sort of age. Now if you’d asked my advice, I’d have said ‘Leave off at seven’Mbut it’s too late now.”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
