Put Off

Famous quotes containing the words put off and/or put:

    Latin America is very fond of the word “hope.” We like to be called the “continent of hope.” Candidates for deputy, senator, president, call themselves “candidates of hope.” This hope is really something like a promise of heaven, an IOU whose payment is always being put off. It is put off until the next legislative campaign, until next year, until the next century.
    Pablo Neruda (1904–1973)

    I’ll put a girdle round about the earth
    In forty minutes.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I put all my genius into my life; I put only my talent into my works.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
