Famous quotes containing the word long:
“With deep men, as with deep wells, it takes a long time for anything that falls into them to hit bottom. Onlookers, who almost never wait long enough, readily suppose that such men are callous and unresponsive—or even boring.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
