Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country.

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“That night ended the day when history was written in Abilene. August 14, 1865 was the date. That was the end of the first drive on the Chisolm Trail. It was just the first of thousands of such drives bringing beef to the world.”
