Summer Heat Wave

Famous quotes containing the words summer, heat and/or wave:

    “Unloved, that beech will gather brown,
    This maple burn itself away;

    Unloved, the sun-flower, shining fair,
    Ray round with flames her disk of seed,
    And many a rose-carnation feed
    With summer spice the humming air;”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “To say nothing is out here is incorrect; to say the desert is stingy with everything except space and light, stone and earth is closer to the truth.”
    —William Least Heat Moon [William Trogdon] (b. 1939)

    “Through the dark cold and the empty desolation,
    The wave cry, the wind cry, the vast waters
    Of the petrel and the porpoise. In my end is my beginning.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
