Winter Retreat

Famous quotes containing the words winter and/or retreat:

    Now is the winter of our discontent
    Made glorious by this son of York;
    And all the clouds that loured upon our house
    In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.

    When we retreat to the country, we are hiding not from people, but from our pride, which, in the city and among people, operates unfairly and immoderately.
