Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practise, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever- present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.”
—Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
“Muriel Bedford: It isn’t every day that your only son gets married.
Judge Bedford: He’s your son, too, Muriel. I mean it’s about time you started taking half the blame.”
—Dale Launer (b. 1953)
