Famous quotes containing the words dominion and/or day:
“Under the dominion of an idea, which possesses the minds of multitudes, as civil freedom, or the religious sentiment, the power of persons are no longer subjects of calculation. A nation of men unanimously bent on freedom, or conquest, can easily confound the arithmetic of statists, and achieve extravagant actions, out of all proportion to their means; as, the Greeks, the Saracens, the Swiss, the Americans, and the French have done.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“My generation had Doris Day as a role model, then Gloria Steinem—then Princess Diana. We are the most confused generation.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
