Present Progressive

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or progressive:

“The salt person and blasted place
I furnish with the meat of a fable;
If the dead starve, their stomachs turn to tumble
An upright man in the antipodes
Or spray-based and rock-chested sea:
Over the past table I repeat this present grace.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“A man is a method, a progressive arrangement; a selecting principle, gathering his like to him; wherever he goes.”
