The heart of autumn

“Notice that autumn is more the season of the soul than of nature.”

 "How beautiful the leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.”

 John Burroughs

Keep calm and go to London.

“By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show.”

–          Samuel Johnson, 1773, as quoted by James Boswell in The Life of Samuel Johnson, 1791

Night hath a thousand eyes.

The things of the night cannot be explained in the day, because they do not then exist.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY, A Farewell to Arms

God, like all highest things,
Hides light in shade,
And in the night his visitings
To sleep and dreams are clearliest made.

ARTHUR SYMONS, "To Night"
