Famous quotes containing the words republic and/or day:

    “I date the end of the old republic and the birth of the empire to the invention, in the late thirties, of air conditioning. Before air conditioning, Washington was deserted from mid-June to September.... But after air conditioning and the Second World War arrived, more or less at the same time, Congress sits and sits while the presidents—or at least their staffs—never stop making mischief.”
    —Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

    “In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o’clock in the morning, day after day.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
