Singing Day

Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or day:

    Where there’s more of singing and less of sighing,
    Where there’s more of giving and less of buying,
    And a man makes friends without half trying
    That’s where the West begins.
    Arthur Chapman (1873–1935)

    The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more
    John Adams (1735–1826)
