Apparent Solar Day

Famous quotes containing the words apparent, solar and/or day:

    The compensations of calamity are made apparent to the understanding also, after long intervals of time. A fever, a mutilation, a cruel disappointment, a loss of wealth, a loss of friends, seems at the moment unpaid loss, and unpayable. But the sure years reveal the deep remedial force that underlies all facts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Lincoln becomes the American solar myth, the chief butt of American credulity and sentimentality.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    ... you learned to compress almost everything in the first sentence, and the only phrase you needed was “plans were made to organize.” It took me a day to learn this, and that is all you have to learn in newspaper writing.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
