Famous quotes containing the words final, regular and/or season:

    “Resolved, There can never be a true peace in this Republic until the civil and political rights of all citizens of African descent and all women are practically established. Resolved, that the women of the Revolution were not wanting in heroism and self-sacrifice, and we, their daughters, are ready, in this War, to pledge our time, our means, our talents, and our lives, if need be, to secure the final and complete consecration of America to freedom.”
    —Woman’s Loyal League (founded May 1861)

    ““I couldn’t afford to learn it,” said the Mock Turtle with a sigh. “I only took the regular course.”
    “What was that?” inquired Alice.
    “Reeling and Writhing, of course, to begin with,” the Mock Turtle replied; “and then the different branches of Arithmetic—Ambition, Distraction, Uglification, and Derision.”
    “I never heard of ‘Uglification,’” Alice ventured to say.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Life contracts and death is expected,
    As in a season of autumn.
    The soldier falls.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
