Famous quotes containing the word event:
“Found a family, build a state,
The pledged event is still the same:
Matter in end will never abate
His ancient brutal claim.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The defiance of established authority, religious and secular, social and political, as a world-wide phenomenon may well one day be accounted the outstanding event of the last decade.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“The event combined with
Beams leading up to it for the look of force adapted to the wiser
Usages of age, but it’s both there
And not there, like washing or sawdust in the sunlight,
At the back of the mind, where we live now.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
