Short Stay

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or stay:

    In a virtuous and free state, no rewards can be so pleasing to sensible minds, as those which include the approbation of our fellow citizens. My great pain is, lest my poor endeavours should fall short of the kind expectations of my country.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    I long for truth, and yet
    I cannot stay from that
    My better self disowns,
    For a man’s attention
    Brings such satisfaction
    To the craving in my bones.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
