Famous quotes containing the word accidents:

    “The day-laborer is reckoned as standing at the foot of the social scale, yet he is saturated with the laws of the world. His measures are the hours; morning and night, solstice and equinox, geometry, astronomy, and all the lovely accidents of nature play through his mind.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Some accidents there are in life that a little folly is necessary to help us out of.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    “I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
    Those undreamt accidents that have made me
    Seeing that Fame has perished this long while,
    Being but a part of ancient ceremony
    Notorious, till all my priceless things
    Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
