Quotations for glides

To him who in the love of nature holds
Communion with her visible forms, she speaks
A various language; for his gayer hours
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware. [ Bryant ]

Time glides on stealthily, and eludes us as it steals past. [ Ovid ]

When summer gathers up her robes of glory, and like a dream of beauty glides away. [ Sarah Helen Whitman ]

Make the most of time, it glides away so fast; but order teaches you to gain time. [ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe ]

Time steals on and escapes us, like the swift river that glides on with rapid stream. [ Ovid ]

Winged time glides on insensibly, and deceives us; and there is nothing more fleeting than years. [ Ovid ]

Time glides away, and we grow older through the noiseless years; the days flee away, and are restrained by no rein. [ Ovid ]

The peasant waits until the river shall cease to flow; but still it glides on, and will glide on for all time to come. [ Horace ]
