Famous quotes containing the word august:

    “If August passes
    flowerless,
    and the frosts come,
    will I have learned to rejoice enough
    in the sober wonder of
    green healthy leaves?”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “Ancient of days! august Athena! where,
    Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul?
    Gone—glimmering through the dream of things that were.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “In the old days, one married a wife; now one forms a company with a female partner, or moves in to live with a friend. And then one seduces the partner, or defiles the friend.”
