Early August

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or august:

“Yet, haply, in some lull of life,
Some Truce of God which breaks its strife,
The worldling’s eyes shall gather dew,
Dreaming in throngful city ways
Of winter joys his boyhood knew;
And dear and early friends—the few”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

“What an occupation! To sit and flay your fellow men and then offer their skins for sale and expect them to buy them.”
