Famous quotes containing the words empire and/or day:
“To Americans I hardly need to say,—
“Westward the star of empire takes its way.””

“The heavy burden of the growing soul
Perplexes and offends more, day by day;
Week by week, offends and perplexes more
With the imperatives of “is and seems”
And may and may not, desire and control.”
