Quotations on Spring

March 24th, 2006 by Michael Moncur in Holidays

The season of Spring officially began on March 20th, and I’ve been surprised to see Spring-like weather even here in Utah, where we sometimes see snow in June. In honor of the season, I’ve updated our Subject Page for Spring. Here is a sampling of quotations about Spring:

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome.
Anne Bradstreet, ‘Meditations Divine and Moral,’ 1655
[Spring is] when life’s alive in everything.
Christina Rossetti
Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush.
Doug Larson
A little Madness in the Spring Is wholesome even for the King.
Emily Dickinson, No. 1333
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Percy Bysshe Shelley
To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring.
George Santayana

    Depressingly doesn’t seem like spring here. The weather is quite depressing in fact.
