Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or campaign:

    The winter is made and you have to bear it,
    The winter web, the winter woven, wind and wind,
    For all the thoughts of summer that go with it
    In the mind, pupa of straw, moppet of rags....

    You campaign in poetry. You govern in prose.
