Famous quotes containing the words hot and/or deserts:

    Like to the time o’ th’ year between the extremes
    Of hot and cold, he was nor sad nor merry.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In every landscape, the point of astonishment is the meeting of the sky and the earth, and that is seen from the first hillock as well as from the top of the Alleghanies. The stars at night stoop down over the brownest, homeliest common, with all the spiritual magnificence which they shed on the Campagna, or on the marble deserts of Egypt.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
