Quotes about summer
summer latin fall
What a contrast between the stern and desolate poetry of Ossian, and that of Chaucer, and even of Shakespeare and Milton, much more of Dryden, and Pope, and Gray!

Henry David Thoreau

I well-nigh sunk all my capital in it, and lost my own breath into the bargain, running in the face of it.
