Famous quotes containing the words day and/or earth:

    So this
    Is man; so—what better conclusion is there—
    The day will not follow night, and the heart
    Of man has a little dignity, but less patience
    Than a wolf’s,
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    He was thoughtful and grave—but the orders he gave
    Were enough to bewilder a crew.
    When he cried “Steer to starboard, but keep her head larboard!”
    What on earth was the helmsman to do?
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
