Elinor Wylie Quotes

The winter will be short, the summer long, The autumn amber-hued, sunny and hot, Tasting of cider and of scuppernong; All seasons sweet, but autumn best of all. The squirrels in their silver fur will fall Like falling leaves, like fruit, before your shot.

• It is going to be necessary that everything that happens in a finite volume of space and time would have to be analyzable with a finite number of logical operations.
