Late Autumn

Famous quotes containing the words late and/or autumn:

“Progress would not have been the rarity it is if the early food had not been the late poison.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)

“And Change with hurried hand has swept these scenes:
The woods have fallen, across the meadow-lot
The hunter’s trail and trap-path is forgot,
And fire has drunk the swamps of evergreens;
Yet for a moment let my fancy plant
These autumn hills again: the wild dove’s haunt,
The wild deer’s walk: in golden umbrage shut,”
—Frederick Goddard Tuckerman (1821–1873)
