Famous quotes containing the word climate:

    “The climate has been described as “ten months winter and two months mighty late in the fall.””
    —Administration in the State of Colo, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “If often he was wrong and at times absurd,
    To us he is no more a person
    Now but a whole climate of opinion.”
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    “A tree is beautiful, but what’s more, it has a right to life; like water, the sun and the stars, it is essential. Life on earth is inconceivable without trees. Forests create climate, climate influences peoples’ character, and so on and so forth. There can be neither civilization nor happiness if forests crash down under the axe, if the climate is harsh and severe, if people are also harsh and severe.... What a terrible future!”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
