Famous quotes containing the words summer, time and/or act:

    “Cling with life to the maid;
    But when the surprise,
    First vague shadow of surmise
    Flits across her bosom young,
    Of a joy apart from thee,
    Free be she, fancy-free;
    Nor thou detain her vesture’s hem,
    Nor the palest rose she flung
    From her summer diadem.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “To put one brick upon another,
    Add a third, and then a fourth,
    Leaves no time to wonder whether
    What you do has any worth.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “In the order of literature, as in others, there is no act that is not the coronation of an infinite series of causes and the source of an infinite series of effects.”
