Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or present:

From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.”
—For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.”
