Day Chief

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or chief:

    “It was a day of cold
    Raw silence, wind-blown
    Surplice and soutane:
    Rained-on, flower-laden
    Coffin after coffin
    Seemed to float from the door”
    —Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    “The chief reason warfare is still with us is neither a secret death-wish of the human species, nor an irrepressible instinct of aggression, nor, finally and more plausibly, the serious economic and social dangers inherent in disarmament, but the simple fact that no substitute for this final arbiter in international affairs has yet appeared on the political scene.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
