Famous quotes containing the words extinction and/or event:

    I wish all men to be free. I wish the material prosperity of the already free which I feel sure the extinction of slavery would bring.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    The event combined with
    Beams leading up to it for the look of force adapted to the wiser
    Usages of age, but it’s both there
    And not there, like washing or sawdust in the sunlight,
    At the back of the mind, where we live now.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
