In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.
~William Blake
“Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.”
~Albert Camus
“Spring passes and one remembers one’s innocence.
Summer passes and one remembers one’s exuberance.
Autumn passes and one remembers one’s reverence.
Winter passes and one remembers one’s perseverance.”
