Loiter Quotes

I walk in a cloud of wonder; I am glad. I mingle among the crowds; my heart is pounding; You do not guess the adventure I have had!... Yet you, too, all have had your dark adventures, Your sudden adventures, or strange, or sweet... My peril goes out from me, is blown among you. We loiter, dreaming together, along the street. (Conrad Aiken)

Ralph Waldo Emerson
I'm king of the dead-and I make my throne On a monument slab of marble cold; And my scepter of rule is the spade I hold: Come they from cottage or come they from hall, Mankind are my subjects, all, all, all! Let them loiter in pleasure or toilfully spin- I gather them in, I gather them in! View quote
