World Coming

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or coming:

“We Americans have the chance to become someday a nation in which all radical stocks and classes can exist in their own selfhoods, but meet on a basis of respect and equality and live together, socially, economically, and politically. We can become a dynamic equilibrium, a harmony of many different elements, in which the whole will be greater than all its parts and greater than any society the world has seen before. It can still happen.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)

“And you teetered on the edge of this
Calm street with its sidewalks, its traffic,
As though they are coming to get you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
