Famous quotes containing the words late and/or developments:
“Too late in the wrong rain
They come together whom their love parted:
The windows pour into their heart
And the doors burn in their brain.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.”
—C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)
