Famous quotes containing the words seasons, tigers and/or history:

    “The men who think of superannuation at sixty-one are those whose lives have been idle, not they who have really buckled themselves to work. It is my opinion that nothing seasons the mind for endurance like hard work. Port wine should perhaps be added.”
    —Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    “Even tigers sometimes take naps.”
    —Chinese proverb.

    “Bias, point of view, fury—are they ... so dangerous and must they be ironed out of history, the hills flattened and the contours leveled? The professors talk ... about passion and point of view in history as a Calvinist talks about sin in the bedroom.”
    —Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
