Famous quotes containing the word events:

    “All the events which make the annals of the nations are but the shadows of our private experiences.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    “There are many events in the womb of time which will be delivered.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
