Famous quotes containing the word original:
“The Spacious Firmament on high,
With all the blue Ethereal Sky,
And spangled Heavns, a Shining Frame,
Their great Original proclaim:
Th unwearied Sun, from day to day,
Does his Creators Powr display,
And publishes to every Land
The Work of an Almighty Hand.”
—Joseph Addison (16721719)
