Famous quotes containing the word events:

    Still, you can’t listen unmoved to tales of misery and murder.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    The phenomenon of nature is more splendid than the daily events of nature, certainly, so then the twentieth century is splendid.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    It is the true office of history to represent the events themselves, together with the counsels, and to leave the observations and conclusions thereupon to the liberty and faculty of every man’s judgement.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
