Famous quotes containing the words season and/or facts:

    “Methoughts a legion of foul fiends
    Environed me, and howled in mine ears
    Such hideous cries that with the very noise
    I trembling waked, and for a season after
    Could not believe but that I was in hell,
    Such terrible impression made my dream.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Genius has infused itself into nature. It indicates itself by a small excess of good, a small balance in brute facts always favorable to the side of reason.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
