Famous quotes containing the words books, year and/or contest:

    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Like to the time o’ th’ year between the extremes
    Of hot and cold, he was nor sad nor merry.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It is odd but agitation or contest of any kind gives a rebound to my spirits and sets me up for a time.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
