Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or attempts:
“All we know
Is that we are a little early, that
Today has that special, lapidary
Todayness that the sunlight reproduces
Faithfully in casting twig-shadows on blithe
Sidewalks. No previous day would have been like this.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Because the soul is progressive, it never quite repeats itself, but in every act attempts the production of a new and fairer whole.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
