Summer Exhibition

Famous quotes containing the words summer and/or exhibition:

    “Through winter-time we call on spring,
    And through the spring on summer call,
    And when abounding hedges ring
    Declare that winter’s best of all;
    And after that there’s nothing good
    Because the spring-time has not come....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The hardiest skeptic who has seen a horse broken, a pointer trained, or has visited a menagerie or the exhibition of the Industrious Fleas, will not deny the validity of education. “A boy,” says Plato, “is the most vicious of all beasts;” and in the same spirit the old English poet Gascoigne says, “A boy is better unborn than untaught.””
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
