Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal.... Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
“The day is for mistake and error, sequence of time for success and carrying out. The one who anticipates is master of the day.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
