Famous quotes containing the words autumn and/or leaves:
“In the autumn brilliance
feathers tingle at fingertips.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“The camera has an interest in turning history into spectacle, but none in reversing the process. At best, the picture leaves a vague blur in the observer’s mind; strong enough to send him into battle perhaps, but not to have him understand why he is going.”
—Denis Donoghue (b. 1928)
