Famous quotes containing the words procession and/or history:

“She is a procession no one can follow after
But be like a little dog following a brass band.”
—George Barker (b. 1913)

“If usually the “present age” is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as the history of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.”
—Josiah Royce (1855–1916)
