Famous quotes containing the word today:
“The great majority of people in England and America are modest, decent and pure-minded and the amount of virgins in the world today is stupendous.”

The nursemaid sitting passive in the park
Was rarely by a changeling prince accosted,
The mornings happened similar and stark
In rooms of selfhood where we woke and lay
Watching today unfold like yesterday.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
