Famous quotes containing the words day, fast and/or pass:
“The prairies were dust. Day after day, summer after summer, the scorching winds blew the dust and the sun was brassy in a yellow sky. Crop after crop failed. Again and again the barren land must be mortgaged for taxes and food and next years seed. The agony of hope ended when there was not harvest and no more credit, no money to pay interest and taxes; the banker took the land. Then the bank failed.”
—Rose Wilder Lane (18861968)
“Endlessly, time-honoured irritant,
A bubble is restively forming at your tip.
Burst it as fast as we can
It will grow again, until we begin dying.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“I always pass on good advice. It is the only thing to do with it. It is never of any use to oneself.”
—Oscar Wilde (18541900)
