Famous quotes containing the words national and/or day:

    Just so before we’re international,
    We’re national and act as nationals.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    These, in the day when heaven was falling,
    The hour when earth’s foundations fled,
    Followed their mercenary calling
    And took their wages and are dead.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
