In my village, when the peasants had to travel to town, they would go to the railway station at sunrise and lie down to sleep in the waiting-room until the train came, which was usually at about midday; sometimes it only came in the evening or next morning. ❋ Thomas Plastino Martin (2010)
The will to alleviate a little of life's "blunder" and "shame" not to mention the queues in the hospital waiting-room is what Labour party politics really ought to be about. ❋ Rus Bowden (2010)
The strange edifice rose glimmering from the snows that banked it and hooded it, white, cold, silent, a fit waiting-room on the mysterious route to eternity. ❋ Johnny Pez (2010)
