Famous quotes containing the words summer, time and/or order:
“Taffeta phrases, silken phrases precise,

I do forswear them.”

—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
“In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday.

—Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)
