Time Required

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or required:

    “For of those [cities] that were great in earlier times, most of them have now become small, while those which were great in my time were small formerly.”
    —Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)

    “She, as a veil down to the slender waist,
    Her unadorned golden tresses wore
    Dishevelled, but in wanton ringlets waved
    As the vine curls her tendrils, which implied
    Subjection, but required with gentle sway,
    And by her yielded, by him best received,
    Yielded with coy submission, modest pride,
    And sweet, reluctant, amorous delay.
    Nor those mysterious parts were then concealed:
    Then was not guilty shame: dishonest Shame
    Of Nature’s works, Honour dishonourable.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
