Hot Flashes

Famous quotes containing the words hot and/or flashes:

“Good-night to the Season!—the dances,
The fillings of hot little rooms,
The glancings of rapturous glances,
The fancyings of fancy costumes;
The pleasures which Fashion makes duties,
The praisings of fiddles and flutes,
The luxury of looking at beauties,
The tedium of talking to mutes;”
—Winthrop Mackworth Praed (1802–1839)

“Knowledge does not come to us by details, but in flashes of light from heaven.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
