~ Perfect winter weather is a great caffeine, while perfect summer weather is the best sedative. ~ ~ What was so good about it was that the set that they originally built stayed there, and weathered over the five years. It got five summers and five winters of weather. It became more and more authentic as we worked in it, and they added bits to it.† ~ ~ Spring is the season of gaiety, and winter of terror; in spring the heart of tranquility dances to the melody of the groves, and the eye of benevolence sparkles at the sight of happiness and plenty: in winter, compassion melts at universal calamity, and the tear of softness starts at the wailing of hunger and the cries of the creation in distress ~ ~ ... the spring, the summer,
The chilling autumn, angry winter, change
Their wonted liveries; and the mazed world
By their increase, now knows not which is which. ~ ~ "Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of the birds, the ebb and flow of the tides, the folded bud ready for the spring. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature - the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the winter." ~ ~ "What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset." ~ ~ Drink wine in winter for cold, and in summer for heat. ~ ~ If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. ~ ~ There is still vitality under the winter snow, even though to the casual eye it seems to be dead. ~ ~ Passover and Easter are the only Jewish and Christian holidays that move in sync, like the ice skating pairs we saw during the winter Olympics. ~ ~ It's a chance to show our recreational activities in winter because a lot of people stay around home. ~ ~ The pine stays green in winter... wisdom in hardship. ~ ~ Nothing is as easy to make as a promise this winter to do something next summer; this is how commencement speakers are caught. ~ ~ The rooms were very still while the pages were softly turned and the winter sunshine crept in to touch the bright heads and serious faces with a Christmas greeting. ~ ~ France had neither winter nor summer nor morals - apart from these drawbacks it is a fine country. ~ ~ If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. ~ ~ Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face. ~ ~ One kind word can warm three winter months. ~ ~ Summer makes me drowsy. Autumn makes me sing. Winter's pretty lousy, but I hate Spring. ~ ~ Autumn, in his leafless bowers, is waiting for the winter's snow. ~ ~ October's poplars are flaming torches lighting the way to winter. ~ ~ Looking up, she showed him quite a young face, but one whose bloom and promise were all swept away, as if the haggard winter should unnaturally kill the spring. ~ ~ Winter lies too long in country towns; hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen. ~ ~ One kind word can warm three winter months. ~ ~ If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. ~ ~ Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home. ~ ~ To shorten winter, borrow some money due in spring. ~ ~ Today we're seeing that climate change is about more than a few unseasonably mild winters or hot summers. It's about the chain of natural catastrophes and devastating weather patterns that global warming is beginning to set off around the world.. the frequency and intensity of which are breaking records thousands of years old. ~ ~ In winter I get up at night And dress by yellow candle-light.In summer quite the other way I have to go to bed by day. ~ ~ In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer. ~ |
