Coming

Famous quotes containing the word coming:

    Our brains are no longer conditioned for reverence and awe. We cannot imagine a Second Coming that would not be cut down to size by the televised evening news, or a Last Judgment not subject to pages of holier-than-Thou second- guessing in The New York Review of Books.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    You might think that after thousands of years of coming up too soon and getting frozen, the crocus family would have had a little sense knocked into it.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “... The grave and my calm body are shut to your coming as stone,
    And the endless beginning of prodigies suffers open.”
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
