Famous quotes containing the word seasons:
“Thus sometimes hath the brightest day a cloud,
And after summer evermore succeeds
Barren winter, with his wrathful nipping cold;
So cares and joys abound, as seasons fleet.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“And so the seasons went rolling on into summer, as one rambles into higher and higher grass.”
