Famous quotes containing the words anticipated and/or events:

    “The rangey bough anticipated fruit
    With snowballs cupped in every opening bud.
    The road alone maintained itself in mud....”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “The return of the asymmetrical Saturday was one of those small events that were interior, local, almost civic and which, in tranquil lives and closed societies, create a sort of national bond and become the favorite theme of conversation, of jokes and of stories exaggerated with pleasure: it would have been a ready- made seed for a legendary cycle, had any of us leanings toward the epic.”
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
