Famous quotes containing the word present:
“I foresee the time when the painter will paint that scene, no longer going to Rome for a subject; the poet will sing it; the historian record it; and, with the Landing of the Pilgrims and the Declaration of Independence, it will be the ornament of some future national gallery, when at least the present form of slavery shall be no more here. We shall then be at liberty to weep for Captain Brown. Then, and not till then, we will take our revenge.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“yet when all is said
It was the dream itself enchanted me:
Character isolated by a deed
To engross the present and dominate memory.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
