Runs

Famous quotes containing the word runs:

    Man ... always remains attached to the past: however far and fast he runs, the chain runs with him.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    And through the field the road runs by
    To many-towered Camelot;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    When a man of sense happens to be in that disagreeable situation in which he is obliged to ask himself more than once, What shall I do? he will answer himself, Nothing. When his reason points out to him no good way, he will stop short, and wait for light. A little busy mind runs on at all events, must be doing; and, like a blind horse, fears no dangers, because he sees none. Il faut scavoir s’ennuïer.*
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
