Famous quotes containing the words future and/or prospects:

    The ellipse is as aimless as that,
    Stretching invisibly into the future so as to reappear
    In our present. Its flexing is its account,
    Return to the point of no return.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    A single gentle rain makes the grass many shades greener. So our prospects brighten on the influx of better thoughts.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
