Famous quotes containing the word august:

    “If August passes
    flowerless,
    and the frosts come,
    will I have learned to rejoice enough
    in the sober wonder of
    green healthy leaves?”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “Many people I know in Los Angeles believe that the Sixties ended abruptly on August 9, 1969, ended at the exact moment when word of the murders on Cielo Drive traveled like brushfire through the community, and in a sense this is true. The tension broke that day. The paranoia was fulfilled.”
    —Joan Didion (b. 1935)

    “Antipathy, dissimilarity of views, hate, contempt, can accompany true love.”
    —J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
