Present Danger

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or danger:

“America’s present need is not heroics but healing; not nostrums but normalcy; not revolution but restoration.”

“We do not quite forgive a giver. The hand that feeds us is in some danger of being bitten. We can receive anything from love, for that is a way of receiving it from ourselves; but not from any one who assumes to bestow. We sometimes hate the meat which we eat, because there seems something of degrading dependence in living it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
