Famous quotes containing the words excess and/or heat:
“I would rather have a young fellow too much than too little dressed: the excess on that side will wear off, with a little age and reflection; but if he is negligent at twenty, he will be a sloven at forty, and stink at fifty years old.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“When the heat of the summer
Made drowsy the land,
A dragon-fly came
And sat on my hand;”
