Your Quotes for 21 June 2006 - Summer

At 12:26 Universal Time today, our planet passes the Solstice. (That's 5:26 am Pacific time, 8:26 Eastern.) Summer is here, at least for us in the northern hemisphere. Amazingly enough, the local forecast is for ten straight days of sunshine, I'm ready for that.

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.
     - James Dent

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.

Steep thyself in a bowl of summertime.
     - Virgil, 70 - 19 BC

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.
     - Ada Louise Huxtable

Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it.
     - Russell Baker
