Free summer sayings, quotes and quotations
Summer is the time when one sheds one's tensions with one's clothes, and the right kind of day is jeweled balm for the battered spirit. A few of those days and you can become drunk with the belief that all's right with the world.
~summer quotes by Ada Louise Huxtable
It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone.
~inspirational sayings about Baseball quotes by A. Bartlett Giamatti, The Green Fields of the Mind, Yale Alumni Magazine, November 1977
Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability.
~summer quotes by Sam Keen
One summer night, out on a flat headland, all but surrounded by the waters of the bay, the horizons were remote and distant rims on the edge of space. Millions of stars blazed in darkness, and on the far shore a few lights burned in cottages. Otherwise there was no reminder of human life. My companion and I were alone with the stars: the misty river of the Milky Way flowing across the sky, the patterns of the constellations standing out bright and clear, a blazing planet low on the horizon. It occurred to me that if this were a sight that could be seen only once in a century, this little headland would be thronged with spectators. But it can be see many scores of nights in any year, and so the lights burned in the cottages and the inhabitants probably gave not a thought to the beauty overhead; and because they could see it almost any night, perhaps they never will.
~famous quotes about Night by Rachel Carson
In the depths of winter I finally learned there was in me an invincible summer.
~summer sayings by Albert Camus
Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.

~inspirational sayings about Beauty quotes by Rachel Carson
Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.
~summer quotes by J. Lubbock
In summer, the song sings itself.
~famous quotes about Summer by William Carlos Williams
In winter I get up at night,And dress by yellow candle-light.In summer quite the other way,I have to go to bed by day.,

Summer set lip to earth's bosom bare,And left the flushed print in a poppy there.

Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you.

~summer quotes by Bartlett Giamatti
We are like people with short-term leases on summer cottages; we can never seem to make our provisions come out even with our stay.

There is a temperate zone in the mind, between luxurious indolence and exacting work; and it is to this region, just between laziness and labor, that summer reading belongs.

The typical gambler might not really understand the probabilistic nuances of the wheel or the dice, but such things seem a bit more tractable than, say, trying to raise a child in this lunatic society of ours.

~good sayings about Humankind by W.S. Gilbert
I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here, and what the question might mean. I might think about it a little bit, but if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else. But I don't have to know an answer.... I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn't frighten me.
~summer quotes by Richard Phillips Feynman

Test of right and wrong: Does it do the greatest good to the greatest number?
~good sayings about Relationship by
It is not a man's duty, as a matter of course, to devote himself to the eradication of any, even the most enormous wrong; he may still properly have other concerns to engage him; but it is his duty, at least, to wash his hands of it, and, if he gives it no thought longer, not to give it practically his support. If I devote myself to other pursuits and contemplations, I must first see, at least, that I do not pursue them sitting upon another man's shoulders.
~summer quotes by Henry David Thoreau, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
