Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or tale:
“Within the circuit of this plodding life
There enter moments of an azure hue,
Untarnished fair as is the violet
Or anemone, when the spring strews them
By some meandering rivulet, which make
The best philosophy untrue that aims
But to console man for his grievances.
I have remembered when the winter came,”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“With a tale, forsooth, he cometh unto you; with a tale which holdeth children from play, and old men from the chimney corner.”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
