Famous quotes containing the words form present, form, present and/or day:
“While they stand at home at the door he is dead already,
The only son is dead.
But the mother needs to be better,
She with thin form presently drest in black,
By day her meals untouch’d, then at night fitfully sleeping, often waking,
In the midnight waking, weeping, longing with one deep longing,
O that she might withdraw unnoticed, silent from life escape and
withdraw,
To follow, to seek, to be with her dear dead son.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Like dreams, statistics are a form of wish fulfillment.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“At present our only true names are nicknames.”

“The end crowns all;
And that old common arbitrator, Time,
Will one day end it.”
