Famous quotes containing the words year and/or day:
“look the spangles
that sleep all the year in a dark box

“If Washington were President now, he would have to learn our ways or lose his next election. Only fools and theorists imagine that our society can be handled with gloves or long poles.

If virtue wont answer our purpose, we must use vice, or our opponents will put us out of office, and this was as true in Washingtons day as it is now, and always will be.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (18381918)
