Famous quotes containing the word today:

    “Everything here below beneath the sun is subject to continual change; and perhaps there is nothing which can be called more inconstant than opinion, which turns round in an everlasting circle like the wheel of fortune. He who reaps praise today is overwhelmed with biting censure tomorrow; today we trample under foot the man who tomorrow will be raised far above us.”
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)

    “These native villages are as unchanging as the woman in one of their stories. When she was called before a local justice he asked her age. “I have 45 years.” “But,” said the justice, “you were forty-five when you appeared before me two years ago.” “SeƱor Judge,” she replied proudly, drawing herself to her full height, “I am not of those who are one thing today and another tomorrow!””
    —State of New Mexico, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “What we’re saying today is that you’re either part of the solution or you’re part of the problem.”
    —Eldridge Cleaver (b. 1935)
