Present Danger

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or danger:

“The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope.”
—Frank Lloyd Wright (1869–1959)

“The danger lies in forgetting what we had. The flow between generations becomes a trickle, grandchildren tape-recording grandparents’ memories on special occasions perhaps—no casual storytelling jogged by daily life, there being no shared daily life what with migrations, exiles, diasporas, rendings, the search for work. Or there is a shared daily life riddled with holes of silence.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
