Glorious Spring in Selle

 

In a pleasant spring morning all men's sins

are forgiven.

----Henry David Thoreau

 

The first pleasant days of spring come out like a squirrel and go in again.

----Henry David Thoreau

 

It is chiefly the spring birds that I hear at this hour, and in each dawn the spring is thus revived.

----Henry David Thoreau

We are most apt to remember and cherish the flowers which appear earliest in the spring. I look with equal affection on those which are the latest to bloom in the fall.

----Henry David Thoreau

What poem is this of spring, so often repeated! 

----Henry David Thoreau

Even a little shining bud which lies sleeping behind its twig and dreaming of spring, perhaps half concealed by ice, is object enough.

                                                             ----Henry David Thoreau

To us snow and cold seem a mere delaying of the spring. 

How far we are from understanding the value of these things in the economy of Nature!

  

----Henry David Thoreau

The day is an epitome of the year. 

The night is the winter, the morning and evening are the spring and fall, and the noon is the summer.

----Henry David Thoreau
