“When someone blushes, doesn’t that mean ‘yes’?” ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

“You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged; but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.” ~ Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“She turned to the sunlight
    And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbor:
    ‘Winter is dead’.”
~ A. A. Milne, When We Were Very Young
