“Time is the skin of existence.”— Renzo Dante (Saligiare) Related Quotes “This is the best thing to wear for today, you understand. Because I don’t like women in skirts and the best thing is to wear pantyhose or some pants under a short skirt, I think. Then you have the pants under the skirt and then you can pull the stockings up over the pants underneath the skirt. And you can always take off the skirt and use it as a cape. So I think this is the best costume for today.”— Edith Bouvier Beale “The pity of it was that this discovery, if such it was, now seemed so stale, so profitless to me. What good was it? What good did thinking ever do?”— Jed Rubenfeld “Believe me if you consult philosophy she will persuade you not to lit so long at your counting desk”— Seneca
