“South Carolina is in the spring a paradise, in the summer a hell, and in the autumn a hospital.”
“Winter is dead; spring is crazy; summer is cheerful and autumn is wise!”
“No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face."[The Autumnal]”
“Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.”
“Truly, Autumn is my season,” the scarlet beast chorted. “Spring and Summer and Winter all begin with such late letters! But Autumn and Fall, I have loved best, because they are best to love.”
“One may prefer spring and summer to autumn and winter, but preference is hardly to the point. The earth turns, and we live in the grain of nature, turning with it.”
