Famous quotes containing the words colorado, avalanche and/or seasons:

    “I am persuaded that the people of the world have no grievances, one against the other. The hopes and desires of a man who tills the soil are about the same whether he lives on the banks of the Colorado or on the banks of the Danube.”
    —Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    “The Humanity of men and women is inversely proportional to their Numbers. A Crowd is no more human than an Avalanche or a Whirlwind. A rabble of men and women stands lower in the scale of moral and intellectual being than a herd of Swine or of Jackals.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “Sorrow breaks seasons and reposing hours,
    Makes the night morning and the noontide night.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
