Everyman Project

Famous quotes containing the words everyman and/or project:

    It is the blankness that follows gaiety, and Everyman must depart
    Out there into stranded night, for his destiny
    Is to return unfruitful out of the lightness
    That passing time evokes.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    In 1869 he started his work for temperance instigated by three drunken men who came to his home with a paper signed by a saloonkeeper and his patrons on which was written “For God’s sake organize a temperance society.”
