Summer Time Order

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

    “Over the threshold
    Nothing like death stepped, nothing like death paused,
    Nothing like death has such hair, arms so raised.
    Why are your feet bare? Was not death to come?
    Why is he not here? What summer have you broken from?”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “The ordinary night was graced
    For them by the swift tide of blood
    That silently they took at flood,
    And for a little time they prized
    Themselves emparadised.”
    —Howard Nemerov (b. 1920)

    “The whole matter revolves around the self-respect of my people. How much satisfaction can I get from a court order for somebody to associate with me who does not wish me near them?”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
