Days Leading

Famous quotes containing the words days and/or leading:

    They sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.
    Bible: Hebrew, Job 2:13.

    It is sometimes called the City of Magnificent Distances, but it might with greater propriety be termed the City of Magnificent Intentions.... Spacious avenues, that begin in nothing, and lead nowhere; streets, mile-long, that only want houses, roads, and inhabitants; public buildings that need but a public to be complete; and ornaments of great thoroughfares, which only lack great thoroughfares to ornament—are its leading features.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
