Advances

Famous quotes containing the word advances:

    For dawn takes away a third part of your work, and advances a man on his journey, and advances him in his work.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    The Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
    But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
    In an age which advances progressively backwards?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    If a man does not make new acquaintance as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man, Sir, should keep his friendship in constant repair.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
