“People don’t notice whether it’s winter or summer when they’re happy.” –Anton Chekhov

   On a nude beach, a digital instant is too cool, a kodak moment too warm. A polaroid season is just right. Like old love at first sight.

“The first day of spring is one thing, and the first spring day is another. The difference between them is sometimes as great as a month.” –Henry Van Dyke

“In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.” –Margaret Atwood

“Spring being a tough act to follow, God created June.” –Al Bernstein

“There is a harmony in autumn, and a luster in its sky, which through the summer is not heard or seen, as if it could not be, as if it had not been!” –Percy Bysshe Shelley

“The Indian Summer of life should be a little sunny and a little sad, like the season, and infinite in wealth and depth of tone, but never hustled.” –Henry Adams

“Love, all alike, no season knows, nor clime, nor hours, days, months, which are the rags of time.” –John Donne

“A day without sunshine is, like, you know, night.” –Steve Martin

“To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring.” –George Santayana
