Famous quotes containing the words current and/or activities:

    Natural Man, in our current version, is a disgruntled adolescent.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
