Shady Spring

Famous quotes containing the words shady and/or spring:

    “And though the shady gloom
    Had given day her room,
    The sun himself withheld his wonted speed,
    And hid his head for shame,
    As his inferior flame
    The new-enlightened world no more should need;
    He saw a greater Sun appear
    Than his bright throne or burning axle-tree could bear.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Climate of Egypt in winter is the reign of spring upon earth, & summer in the air, and tranquility in the heat.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
