Present Danger

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or danger:

“As regards the celebrated “struggle for life,” it seems to me for the present to have been rather asserted than proved. It does occur, but as the exception; the general aspect of life is not hunger and distress, but rather wealth, luxury, even absurd prodigality—where there is a struggle it is a struggle for power.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“There is danger that we lose sight of what our friend is absolutely, while considering what she is to us alone.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
