Famous quotes containing the words france and/or summer:
“I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“The summer hath his joys
And winter his delights;
Though love and all his pleasures are but toys,
They shorten tedious nights.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
