Minutes Silence

Famous quotes containing the words minutes and/or silence:

“A new gadget that lasts only five minutes is worth more than an immortal work that bores everyone.”
—Francis Picabia (1878–1953)

“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)
