Minute Delay

Famous quotes containing the words minute and/or delay:

    I do not portray the thing in itself. I portray the passage; not a passing from one age to another, or, as the people put it, from seven years to seven years, but from day to day, from minute to minute.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Once we began to see our images
    Reflected in the mud and even dust,
    ‘Twas disillusion upon disillusion.
    We were lost piecemeal to the animals,
    Like people thrown out to delay the wolves.
    Nothing but fallibility was left us....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
