Famous quotes containing the words months and/or calendar:
“Can no man tell me of my unthrifty son?
Tis full three months since I did see him last.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“To divide ones life by years is of course to tumble into a trap set by our own arithmetic. The calendar consents to carry on its dull wall-existence by the arbitrary timetables we have drawn up in consultation with those permanent commuters, Earth and Sun. But we, unlike trees, need grow no annual rings.”
—Clifton Fadiman (b. 1904)
