"And they left the mellow light of the dandelion wine and went upstairs to carry out the last few rituals of summer, for they felt that now the final day, the final night had come. As the day grew late they realized that for two or three nights now, porches had emptied early of their inhabitants. The air hard a different, drier smell and Grandma was talking of hot coffee instead of iced tea; the open, white-flutter-curtained windows were closing in the great bays; cold cuts were giving way to steamed beef. The mosquitos were gone from the porch, and surely when they abandoned the conflict the war with Time was really done, there was nothing for it but that humans also forsake the battleground."
"Spring beckons! All things to the call respond; the trees are leaving and cashiers abscond."
"Autumn is leaving its mellowness behind for its spiky, rotted stage. Don't remember summer even saying goodbye."
"When it is summer, enjoy it, but you must also prepare for winter."
"Among the delights of Summer were picnics to the woods."

"He was in love with every pretty woman he saw now, their forms at a distance, their shadows on the walls."
"Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero."
"You know I'm old in some ways-in others-well, I'm just a little girl. I like sunshine and pretty things and cheerfulness-and I dread responsibility."
