Famous quotes containing the words year and/or day:
“He bends to the order of the seasons, the weather, the soils and crops, as the sails of a ship bend to the wind. He represents continuous hard labor, year in, year out, and small gains. He is a slow person, timed to Nature, and not to city watches. He takes the pace of seasons, plants and chemistry. Nature never hurries: atom by atom, little by little, she achieves her work.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The Spacious Firmament on high,
With all the blue Ethereal Sky,
And spangled Heavns, a Shining Frame,
Their great Original proclaim:
Th unwearied Sun, from day to day,
Does his Creators Powr display,
And publishes to every Land
The Work of an Almighty Hand.”
—Joseph Addison (16721719)
