Autumn
For man, autumn is a time of harvest,
of gathering together. For nature, it is a time
of sowing, of scattering abroad.
Edwin Way Tea
No spring nor summer beauty hath such
grace as I have seen in one autumnal face
John Donne
Autumn is a second spring
when every leaf's a flower.
Albert Camus
I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the
bone structure of the landscape -- the
loneliness of it -- the dead feeling of
winter. Something waits beneath it --
the whole story doesn't show.
Andrew Wyeth
Our judgment ripens; our imagination decays.
We cannot at once enjoy the flowers of the Spring
of life and the fruits of its Autumn.
Thomas Babington Macaulay
Spring comes with flowers, autumn with the
moon, summer with the breeze, winter with
snow. When idle concerns don't fill your
thoughts, that's your best season.
Wu-Men
Unless a tree has borne blossoms in spring,
you will vainly look for fruit on it in autumn.
Chalres Hare
Autumn arrives in the early morning, but
spring at the close of a winter day.
Elizabeth Bowen
Autumn wins you best by this its mute
Appeal to sympathy for its decay.
Robert Browning
Change is a measure of time and, in the
autumn, time seems speeded up.
What was is not and never
again will be; what is is change.
Edwin Way Teale
Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded
to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about
the earth seeking the successive autumns.
George Eliot
