Days

Famous quotes containing the word days:

    I regard a love for poetry as one of the most needful and helpful elements in the life- outfit of a human being. It was the greatest of blessings to me, in the long days of toil to which I was shut in much earlier than most young girls are, that the poetry I held in my memory breathed its enchanted atmosphere through me and around me, and touched even dull drudgery with its sunshine.
    Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)

    The days to come are a watershed.
    You have to improve your portrait of God
    To make it plain.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
