Famous quotes containing the words time and/or tide:
“Hear the soft bombs of dust
It bursts against us at the chimney mouth,
And at the eaves. I like it from inside
More than I shall out in it. But the horses
Are rested and it’s time to say Good-night,
And let you get to bed again,”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
