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

    “With a dead sound on the final stroke of nine.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “I like to compare the holiday season with the way a child listens to a favorite story. The pleasure is in the familiar way the story begins, the anticipation of familiar turns it takes, the familiar moments of suspense, and the familiar climax and ending.”
    —Fred Rogers (20th century)
