Famous quotes containing the words france and/or summer:
“In France one must adapt oneself to the fragrance of a urinal.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“Cling with life to the maid;
But when the surprise,
First vague shadow of surmise
Flits across her bosom young,
Of a joy apart from thee,
Free be she, fancy-free;
Nor thou detain her vesture’s hem,
Nor the palest rose she flung
From her summer diadem.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
