Due Dates

Famous quotes containing the words due and/or dates:

“The Oriental philosophy approaches easily loftier themes than the modern aspires to; and no wonder if it sometimes prattle about them. It only assigns their due rank respectively to Action and Contemplation, or rather does full justice to the latter. Western philosophers have not conceived of the significance of Contemplation in their sense.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Our dates are brief, and therefore we admire
What thou dost foist upon us that is old,”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
