Famous quotes containing the words thames and/or season:
“I wander thro each charterd street,
Near where the charterd Thames does flow,
And mark in every face I meet
Marks of weakness, marks of woe.”
—William Blake (17571827)
“The season developed and matured. Another years installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”
—Thomas Hardy (18401928)
