Springtime

1) "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

2) "Earth, teach me to forget myself as melted snow forgets its life, teach me resignation as the leaves which die in the fall, teach me courage as the tree which stands all alone, teach me regeneration as the seed which rises in the spring." William Alexander

3) "I believe in the process, in four seasons, that winter's tough, but spring's coming, that there's a growing seasons. And I think that you realize that in life, you grow. You get better." Steve Southerland

4) "NEVER: cut a tree down in the wintertime; make a negative decision in the low time; make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods.Wait. Be patiant. The storm will pass. The spring will come." Robert H. Schuller

5) "The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another. The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month." Hanry Van Dyke
