Minutes Silence

Famous quotes containing the words minutes and/or silence:

    The slogan ‘45 minutes in Havana’ was not coined in the Cuban city, but in a Yankee cigar factory here.
    —Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Speech is often barren; but silence also does not necessarily brood over a full nest. Your still fowl, blinking at you without remark, may all the while be sitting on one addled egg; and when it takes to cackling will have nothing to announce but that addled delusion.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
