Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or day:

    The Declaration [of Independence] was not a protest against government, but against the excess of government. It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

    What precisely is it
    About the time of day it is, the weather, that causes people to note it painstakingly in their diaries
    For them to read who shall come after?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
