Time Heart Touching

Famous quotes containing the words time, heart and/or touching:

    The President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind the throne.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Camillo. Prosperity’s the very bond of love,
    Whose fresh complexion and whose heart together
    Affliction alters.
    Perdita. One of these is true:
    I think affliction may subdue the cheek,
    But not take in the mind.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Slow, slow, as a fish she came,
    Slow as a fish coming forward,
    Swaying in a long wave;
    Her skirts not touching a leaf,
    Her white arms reaching towards me.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
