Famous quotes containing the word plans:

    We for a certainty are not the first
    Have sat in taverns while the tempest hurled
    Their hopeful plans to emptiness, and cursed
    Whatever brute and blackguard made the world.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Architect. One who drafts a plan of your house, and plans a draft of your money.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
    with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
    that follow’d,
    And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
    still I was not happy,
    But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
    refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
