At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

Abraham Lincoln

In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.

Margaret Atwood

I am never at my best in the early morning, especially a cold morning in the Yorkshire spring with a piercing March wind sweeping down from the fells, finding its way inside my clothing, nipping at my nose and ears.

James Herriot

Autumn arrives in early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day.

Elizabeth Bowen

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.

Hal Borland

If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?

Percy Bysshe Shelley

1

Every year, our white intruders become more greedy, exacting, oppressive, and overbearing. Every year, contentions spring up between them and our people, and when blood is shed, we have to make atonement, whether right or wrong, at the cost of the lives of our greatest chiefs and the yielding up of large tracts of our lands.

Tecumseh

Wars spring from unseen and generally insignificant causes, the first outbreak being often but an explosion of anger.

Thucydides

To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring — these are some of the rewards of the simple life.

John Burroughs

1

To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring.

George Santayana

Unless a tree has borne blossoms in spring, you will vainly look for fruit on it in autumn.

Walter Scott

1

I trust in nature for the stable laws of beauty and utility. Spring shall plant and autumn garner to the end of time.

Robert Browning

Adopting a really positive attitude can work wonders to adding years to your life, a spring to your step, a sparkle to your eye, and all of that.

Christie Brinkley

It is only the farmer who faithfully plants seeds in the Spring, who reaps a harvest in the Autumn.

B. C. Forbes

The garden of love is green without limit and yields many fruits other than sorrow or joy. Love is beyond either condition: without spring, without autumn, it is always fresh.

Rumi

1

Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.

Robert H. Schuller

1

No man can taste the fruits of autumn while he is delighting his scent with the flowers of spring.

Samuel Johnson
