Wait

Famous quotes containing the word wait:

    I shall not sing a May song.
    A May song should be gay.
    I’ll wait until November
    And sing a song of gray.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    We say that every man is entitled to be valued by his best moment. We measure our friends so. We know, they have intervals of folly, whereof we take no heed, but wait the reappearings of the genius, which are sure and beautiful.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I may not tell
    of the forms that pass and pass,
    of that constant old, old face
    that leaps from each wave
    to wait underneath the boat
    in the hope that at last she’s lost.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
