"The most serious charge which can be brought against New England is not Puritanism but February"
~Joseph Wodd Krutch (1893-1970)
"I reverently believe that the Maker who made us all makes everything in New England but the weather. I don't know who makes that, but I think it must be raw apprentices in the weather-clerk's factory who experiment and learn how... In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four-and-twenty hours."
~Mark Twain (1835-1910)
