Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or government:
“All we know
Is that we are a little early, that
Today has that special, lapidary
Todayness that the sunlight reproduces
Faithfully in casting twig-shadows on blithe
Sidewalks. No previous day would have been like this.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“No more distressing moment can ever face a British government than that which requires it to come to a hard, fast and specific decision.”
—Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
