Famous quotes containing the words summer and/or exhibition:
“Unloved, that beech will gather brown,
This maple burn itself away;
Unloved, the sun-flower, shining fair,
Ray round with flames her disk of seed,
And many a rose-carnation feed
With summer spice the humming air;”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
