QUOTES including the word: "fast"

Do not clutch what has been given to you, for joy and desire to possess are but nails fastening you to the perishable world. Verdi:I love art.. when I'm alone with my notes, my heart beats fast and tears run from my eyes. Langston Hughes:“Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly. Ovid:A horse never runs so fast as when he has other horses to catch up and outpace.
Francis Bacon:A bachelor's life is a fine breakfast, a flat lunch, and a miserable dinner. Isaac Asimov:The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
