Days

Famous quotes containing the word days:

    The lumberers rarely trouble themselves to put out their fires, such is the dampness of the primitive forest; and this is one cause, no doubt, of the frequent fires in Maine, of which we hear so much on smoky days in Massachusetts.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We are the Dead. Short days ago
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved, and now we lie
    In Flanders fields.
    John McCrae (1872–1918)

    Do not say, “Why were the former days better than these?” For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.
    Bible: Hebrew, Ecclesiastes 7:10.
