Famous quotes containing the word day:
“The arbitrary division of one’s life into weeks and days and hours seemed, on the whole, useless. There was but one day for the men, and that was pay day, and one for the women, and that was rent day. As for the children, every day was theirs, just as it should be in every corner of the world.”
—Alice Caldwell Rice (1870–1942)
“But the tender grace of a day that is dead
Will never come back to me.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
