Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:
“At present the globe goes with a shattered constitution in its orbit.... No doubt the simple powers of nature, properly directed by man, would make it healthy and a paradise; as the laws of mans own constitution but wait to be obeyed, to restore him to health and happiness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“It was a real treat when hed read me Daisy Miller out loud. But wed reached the point in our relationship when, in a straight choice between him and Henry James, Id have taken Henry James any day even if Henry James were dead and not much of a one for the girls when living, either.”
—Angela Carter (19401992)
