Short

Famous quotes containing the word short:

    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)

    Most critical writing is drivel and half of it is dishonest.... It is a short cut to oblivion, anyway. Thinking in terms of ideas destroys the power to think in terms of emotions and sensations.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    For one swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
