Famous quotes containing the words major and/or events:

    The politician who never made a mistake never made a decision.
    —John Major (b. 1943)

    The great events of life often leave one unmoved; they pass out of consciousness, and, when one thinks of them, become unreal. Even the scarlet flowers of passion seem to grow in the same meadow as the poppies of oblivion.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
