We mourn the blossoms of May because they are to whither; but we know that May is one day to have its revenge upon November, by the revolution of that solemn circle which never stops---which teaches us in our height of hope, ever to be sober, and in our depth of desolation, never to despair.

William Peter Blatty was the famed writer and producer of The Exorcist and its film adaptation. He also wrote and directed the Exorcist III. He was the original writer of the novels, Exorcist and Legion.
