Event

Famous quotes containing the word event:

“Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child’s world and thus a world event.”

Beams leading up to it for the look of force adapted to the wiser
Usages of age, but it’s both there
And not there, like washing or sawdust in the sunlight,
At the back of the mind, where we live now.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“No great inner event befalls those who summon it not.”
—Maurice Maeterlinck (1862–1949)
