Sit

Famous quotes containing the word sit:

    “I can sit up half the night
    With some friend that has the wit
    Not to allow his looks to tell
    When I am unintelligible.
    Fifteen apparitions have I seen;
    The worst a coat upon a coat-hanger.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “My father’s spirit in arms! All is not well.
    I doubt some foul play. Would the night were come!
    Till then sit still, my soul. Foul deeds will rise,
    Though all the earth o’erwhelm them, to men’s eyes.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me; the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.”
