Famous quotes containing the words season and/or summary:

    “The hour of the waning of love has beset us,
    And weary and worn are our sad souls now;
    Let us part, ere the season of passion forget us,
    With a kiss and a tear on thy drooping brow.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Product of a myriad various minds and contending tongues, compact of obscure and minute association, a language has its own abundant and often recondite laws, in the habitual and summary recognition of which scholarship consists.”
    —Walter Pater (1839–1894)
