Famous quotes containing the words main and/or event:

    I think the main thing, don’t you, is to keep the show on the road.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    I feared these present years,
    The middle twenties,
    When deftness disappears,
    And each event is
    Freighted with a source-encrusting doubt,
    And turned to drought.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
