Famous quotes containing the words race, wins, single and/or season:
“Spring, of all seasons most gratuitous,
Is fold of untaught flower, is race of water,
Is earths most multiple, excited daughter;
And those she has least use for see her best,
Their paths grown craven and circuitous,
Their visions mountain-clear, their needs immodest.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Whoever corrects a scoffer wins abuse; whoever rebukes the wicked gets hurt. A scoffer who is rebuked will only hate you; the wise, when rebuked, will love you.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 9:7-8.
“Will power is only the tensile strength of ones own disposition. One cannot increase it by a single ounce.”
—Cesare Pavese (19081950)
“Utterly frozen is this youthful lady,
Even as the snow that lies within the shade;
For she is no more moved than is the stone
By the sweet season which makes warm the hills”
—Dante Alighieri (12651321)
