Intermittently she caught the gist of his sentences and supplied the rest from her subconscious, as one picks up the striking of a clock in the middle with only the rhythm of the first uncounted strokes lingering in the mind.
Quotes about uncounted (5 Quotes)
O Music Miraculous art A blast of thy trumpet and millions rush forward to die a peal of thy organ and uncounted nations sink down to pray
Not the great nor well-bespoke,
But the mere uncounted folk
Of whose life and death is none
Report or lamentation.
And Life has fired, and Death not shaded,
All Time's uncounted bliss,
And the height o' the world has flamed and faded,
Love, that our love be this!
I once described myself as the most optimistic man in America. Life has taught me to put my faith in the uncounted millions who may never run for office, pass a bill, or craft a sound bite, but who fight our wars and embody the ideals worth fighting for.

Now I belong to a disappearing generation, perhaps five million in all, forever bonded by the tests we faced so long ago.
