Famous quotes containing the words events and/or date:

    All strange and terrible events are welcome,
    But comforts we despise.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Until I was twenty-five, I had no development at all. From my twenty-fifth year I date my life. Three weeks have scarcely passed, at any time between then and now, that I have not unfolded within myself. But I feel that I am now come to the inmost leaf of the bulb, and that shortly the flower must fall to the mould.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
