Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“The present reeks of mediocrity and the atom bomb.”
—René Magritte (1898–1967)
“These have been wonderful years. How many happy, happy times we have traveled about together! Day and night, in stage coaches, on freight trains, over the mountains and across the prairies, hungry and tired, we have wandered. The work was sometimes hard and discouraging but those were happy and useful years.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
