Sun Announced

Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or announced:

“Oh, what a catastrophe for man when he cut himself off from the rhythm of the year, from his unison with the sun and the earth. Oh, what a catastrophe, what a maiming of love when it was a personal, merely personal feeling, taken away from the rising and the setting of the sun, and cut off from the magic connection of the solstice and the equinox!”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“On 16 September 1985, when the Commerce Department announced that the United States had become a debtor nation, the American Empire died.”
