Famous quotes containing the words calmly, walk, april and/or day:

    There’s only one way for an individual to remain upright, not to fall to pieces, not to sink into the mire of self-oblivion ... or self-contempt. That’s calmly to turn away from everything, to say, “Enough!” and, folding one’s useless arms across one’s empty breast, to retain the ultimate, the sole attainable virtue, the virtue of recognizing one’s own insignificance.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

    I can’t bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Shining through tears, like April suns in showers,
    That labour to o’ercome the cloud that loads ‘em.
    Thomas Otway (1652–1685)

    One day not seeing a dear one feels like three autumns.
    Chinese proverb.
