Famous quotes containing the words louis and/or season:

    Each has his own tree of ancestors, but at the top of all sits Probably Arboreal.
    —Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    When we reached the lake, about half past eight in the evening, it was still steadily raining, and harder than before; and, in that fresh, cool atmosphere, the hylodes were peeping and the toads ringing about the lake universally, as in the spring with us. It was as if the season had revolved backward two or three months, or I had arrived at the abode of perpetual spring.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
