Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or days:
“These earthly godfathers of Heavens lights,
That give a name to every fixed star,
Have no more profit of their shining nights
Than those that walk and wot not what they are.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“I regard a love for poetry as one of the most needful and helpful elements in the life- outfit of a human being. It was the greatest of blessings to me, in the long days of toil to which I was shut in much earlier than most young girls are, that the poetry I held in my memory breathed its enchanted atmosphere through me and around me, and touched even dull drudgery with its sunshine.”
—Lucy Larcom (18241893)
