Day Period

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or period:

“Hath not the morning dawned with added light?
And shall not evening call another star
Out of the infinite regions of the night,
To mark this day in Heaven? At last, we are
A nation among nations; and the world
Shall soon behold in many a distant port
Another flag unfurled!”
—Henry Timrod (1828–1867)

“To give an accurate and exhaustive account of that period would need a far less brilliant pen than mine.”
