Famous quotes containing the words mango and/or night:

    I don’t see any mango buds,
    Mother-in-Law,
    and the wind
    with that Malabar smell
    isn’t blowing,
    but my longing alone says
    that spring has come.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    Had I been less resolved to work, I would perhaps had made an effort to begin immediately. But since my resolution was formal and before twenty four hours, in the empty slots of the next day where everything fit so nicely because I was not yet there, it was better not to choose a night at which I was not well-disposed for a debut to which the following days proved, alas, no more propitious.... Unfortunately, the following day was not the exterior and vast day which I had feverishly awaited.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
