Famous quotes containing the word events:

    “Custom, then, is the great guide of human life. It is that principle alone, which renders our experience useful to us, and makes us expect, for the future, a similar train of events with those which have appeared in the past.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)

    “Since events are not metaphors, the literal-minded have a certain advantage in dealing with them.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “A curious thing about atrocity stories is that they mirror, instead of the events they purport to describe, the extent of the hatred of the people that tell them.
    Still, you can’t listen unmoved to tales of misery and murder.”
    —John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
