Famous quotes containing the words day, berkeley and/or county:

    The catastrophe
    Buried in the stair carpet stayed there
    And never corrupted anybody.
    And one day he grew up, and the horizon
    Stammered politely. The sky was like muslin.
    And still in the old house no one ever answered the bell.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The eye by long use comes to see even in the darkest cavern: and there is no subject so obscure but we may discern some glimpse of truth by long poring on it.
    —George Berkeley (1685–1753)

    Jack: A politician, huh?
