Famous quotes containing the word season:

    “The morning, which is the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour. Then there is least somnolence in us; and for an hour, at least, some part of us awakes which slumbers all the rest of the day and night.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
