Famous quotes containing the words san, cats and/or seasons:

    “Today, San Francisco has experienced a double tragedy of incredible proportions. As acting mayor, I order an immediate state of mourning in our city. The city and county of San Francisco must and will pull itself together at this time. We will carry on as best as we possibly can.... I think we all have to share the same sense of shame and the same sense of outrage.”
    —Dianne Feinstein (b. 1933)

    “Here was a little of everything in a small compass to satisfy the wants and the ambition of the woods,... but there seemed to me, as usual, a preponderance of children’s toys,—dogs to bark, and cats to mew, and trumpets to blow, where natives there hardly are yet. As if a child born into the Maine woods, among the pine cones and cedar berries, could not do without such a sugar-man or skipping-jack as the young Rothschild has.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “While I enjoy the friendship of the seasons I trust that nothing can make life a burden to me.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
