Winter
» “Winter lies too long in country towns; hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen.”
– Willa Cather
» ”January, month of empty pockets! Let us endure this evil month, anxious as a theatrical producer’s forehead.”
– Sidonie Gabrielle Colette
» ”Often in winter the end of the day is like the final metaphor in a poem celebrating death: there is no way out.”
– Agustin Gomez-Arcos
» ”O, wind, if winter comes, can spring be far behind?”
– Percy Bysshe Shelley
» ”Many of the phenomena of Winter are suggestive of an inexpressible tenderness and fragile delicacy. We are accustomed to hear this king described as a rude and boisterous tyrant; but with the gentleness of a lover he adorns the tresses of Summer.”
– Henry David Thoreau
