Equinox Earth Day

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or day:

    Wherefore did Nature powre her bounties forth,
    With such a full and unwithdrawing hand,
    Covering the earth with odours, fruits, and flocks,
    Thronging the Seas with spawn innumerable,
    But all to please, and sate the curious taste?
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    The democratic youth ... lives along day by day, gratifying the desire that occurs to him, at one time drinking and listening to the flute, at another downing water and reducing, now practising gymnastic, and again idling and neglecting everything; and sometimes spending his time as though he were occupied in philosophy.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
