It’s even pleasant to be sick when you know that there are people who await your recovery as they might await a holiday.

The Story of an Unknown ManAnton Chekhov
» Anton Chekhov - all quotes »
Warsaw is burning. Warsaw is fighting its enemy in this last mortal battle. All the promises let us down, the help did not arrive. Lack of food and lack of potable water paralises and weakens. Yet we fight: with the enemy, with the fire and with the epidemics. Everyone is fighting. Whole city is tied in this mortal struggle. You send us letters of compliments and best wishes from London and Paris. We don't want wishes any more, nor we await your help. It's too late for help. Before it arrives there will be only rubble here, a corpses-covered, levelled terrain. What we await is revenge. We expect that you will start fighting one day, just like Warsaw is.
Stefan Starzynski
Fifty years of anarchy await you, and you will emerge from it only by the power of some dictator who will arise- a true statesman and patriot. O prating people, if you did but know how to act!
Jean-Paul Marat
Dangers await only those who do not react to life.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Yet they, believe me, who await
No gifts from Chance, have conquer’d Fate.Matthew Arnold
I pray you, magnificent Sir, do not trouble yourself to return to us, but await our coming to you.
