Present Day Eastern

Famous quotes containing the words present, day and/or eastern:

    Sometimes all you need to do to win clever people over to a principle is to present it in the form of a shocking paradox.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    All day long in unrest,
    To and fro do I move,
    The very soul within my breast
    Is wasted for you, love!
    Owen Roe MacWard (d. 1849)

    From this elevation, just on the skirts of the clouds, we could overlook the country, west and south, for a hundred miles. There it was, the State of Maine, which we had seen on the map, but not much like that,—immeasurable forest for the sun to shine on, the eastern stuff we hear of in Massachusetts. No clearing, no house. It did not look as if a solitary traveler had cut so much as a walking-stick there.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
