Herman Melville Quote

The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.


Mardi: And a Voyage Thither (ed. 1855)


The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.

The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.

The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.

The dinner-hour is the summer of the day: full of sunshine, I grant; but not like the mellow autumn of supper.
