Famous quotes containing the words john and/or day:
“I do not wish to see John ever again,—I mean him who is dead,—but that other, whom only he would have wished to see, or to be, of whom he was the imperfect representative. For we are not what we are, nor do we treat or esteem each other for such, but for what we are capable of being.”

“The world’s great day is growing late,
Yet strange these fields that we have planted
So long with crops of love and hate.”
