Real Time

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or time:

    Patience, to hear frivolous, impertinent, and unreasonable applications: with address enough to refuse, without offending; or, by your manner of granting, to double the obligation: dexterity enough to conceal a truth, without telling a lie: sagacity enough to read other people’s countenances: and serenity enough not to let them discover anything by yours; a seeming frankness, with a real reserve. These are the rudiments of a politician; the world must be your grammar.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    There comes a time when the waltz
    Is no longer a mode of desire, a mode
    Of revealing desire and is empty of shadows.
    Too many waltzes have ended.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
