Winter Home

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or home:

    “All men hesitate
    Separately, always, seeing another year gone
    Frockcoated gentleman, farmer at his gate,
    Villein with mattock, soldiers on their shields,
    All silent, watching the winter coming on.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
