Famous quotes containing the words season and/or form:
“The landscape was clothed in a mild and quiet light, in which the woods and fences checkered and partitioned it with new regularity, and rough and uneven fields stretched away with lawn-like smoothness to the horizon, and the clouds, finely distinct and picturesque, seemed a fit drapery to hang over fairyland. The world seemed decked for some holiday or prouder pageantry ... like a green lane into a country maze, at the season when fruit-trees are in blossom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“[One cannot express lack of knowledge in affirmative language.] This idea is more firmly grasped in the form of interrogation: What do I know?Mthe words I bear as a motto, inscribed over a pair of scales.”
—Michel de Montaigne (15331592)
