Famous quotes containing the word phenomenon:

    I do not regret my not having seen this before, since I now saw it under circumstances so favorable. I was in just the frame of mind to see something wonderful, and this was a phenomenon adequate to my circumstances and expectation, and it put me on the alert to see more like it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
