Short

Famous quotes containing the word short:

    In this age, which believes that there is a short cut to everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    I had some short struggle in my mind whether I should resign my lover or my liberty, but this lasted not long. I found myself as free as air and could not bear the thought of putting myself in any man’s power for life only from a present capricious inclination.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    A short life and a merry one, my buck!
    We used to say we’d hate to live dead-old,—
    Yet now . . . I’d willingly be puffy, bald,
    And patriotic.
    Wilfred Owen (1893–1918)
