Days Leading

Famous quotes containing the words days and/or leading:

“Yet they do have
don’t they like us
their days of grace, they
halt, stretch, a vision
breaks in on the cramped grimace,
inscape of transformation.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“Our leading men are not of much account and never have been, but the average of the people is immense, beyond all history. Sometimes I think in all departments, literature and art included, that will be the way our superiority will exhibit itself. We will not have great individuals or great leaders, but a great average bulk, unprecedentedly great.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
