Famous quotes containing the word present:
“I foresee the time when the painter will paint that scene, no longer going to Rome for a subject; the poet will sing it; the historian record it; and, with the Landing of the Pilgrims and the Declaration of Independence, it will be the ornament of some future national gallery, when at least the present form of slavery shall be no more here. We shall then be at liberty to weep for Captain Brown. Then, and not till then, we will take our revenge.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“That the end is not far off since it will occur
In the present and this is the present.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The present contains nothing more than the past, and what is found in the effect was already in the cause.”
—Henri Bergson (1859–1941)
