Days

Famous quotes containing the word days:

    “Do not human beings have a hard service on earth, and are not their days like the days of a laborer? Like a slave who longs for the shadow, and like laborers who look for their wages, so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Job 7:1-3.

    “Forego your anger for a moment and save yourself a hundred days of trouble.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “Hoping that, when the devil days of my hurt
    Drag out to their last dregs and I resume
    On such legs as are left me, in such heart
    As I can manage, remember to go home,
    My taste will not have turned insensitive
    To honey and bread old purity could love.”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
