Quote:One kind word can warm three winter months. [Japanese proverb]

Quote:Greetings on this most exceedingly beautiful spring morning. A morning swollen with new life, a morning on which, if I had the voice, I would let loose with song. It's hard to believe just a few short weeks ago we were eating our cornflakes in the wintery dark. Now, well it's still kind of dim out there, but I can see the golden glow of Apollo's chariot waiting in the wings, about to make its entrance. Winter's on the lam, no doubt. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider]

Quote:Weird, isn't it?

It's spring once again, the streets are paved with mud and the hills are alive with the sound of mosquitos. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider]

Quote:In the bleak midwinter Frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, Water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, Snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, Long ago. [Emily Dickinson]

Quote:Every mile is two in winter. [George Herbert]

It's a time of year when the leaves are down and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year and it's time to reflect on what's come before. [Mitchell Burgess]
