Famous quotes containing the words world and/or day:
“O you mighty gods!
This world I do renounce, and in your sights
Shake patiently my great affliction off.
If I could bear it longer, and not fall
To quarrel with your great opposeless wills,
My snuff and loathed part of nature should
Burn itself out.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It was a bright, cold day in April and the clocks were striking thirteen.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
