Spent

Famous quotes containing the word spent:

    You’ve spent too much time with the stars. You don’t know anything about living, the law of the jungle, the human jungle. I do, I’ve spent my life at it. You don’t know what your civilized people will do to cling to life. I do, because I know I’d cling if I had to kill to do it. And so will you.
    Sydney Boehm (1908–1990)

    Sam Tostin: You know I spent a lot of years disliking women. But I don’t dislike you.
    Major Hayward: Don’t you?
    Sam Tostin: You’re different. You’re not a woman. You’re more than that. You’re a mechanic.
    Stanley Shapiro (1925–1990)

    Here, where the world is quiet,
    Here, where all trouble seems
    Dead winds’ and spent waves’ riot
    In doubtful dreams of dreams;
    —A.C. (Algernon Charles)
