Famous quotes containing the words time and/or zone:
“It is time that beats in the breast and it is time
That batters against the mind, silent and proud,
The mind that knows it is destroyed by time.”

Guides through the boundless sky thy certain flight,
In the long way that I must tread alone,
Will lead my steps aright.”
