Autumn Shade

Famous quotes containing the words autumn and/or shade:

“As far as I can see, this autumn haze
That spreading in the evening air both ways
Makes the new moon look anything but new
And pours the elm-tree meadow full of blue,
Is all the smoke from one poor house alone....”

“She leaned far out on the window-sill,
And shook it forth with a royal will.

But spare your country’s flag,” she said.

A shade of sadness, a blush of shame,
Over the face of the leader came;”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
