Spring quote

Ooh, guess I'm falling much too fast
Ooh, I hope this love is gonna last, I've fallen
Ooh, the feeling's getting really strong
Ooh, gives me strength to carry on, I've fallen, I've fallen
Spring affair

DONNA SUMMER

"Spring Affair"


Once I was a sentimental thing,
Threw my heart away each spring,
Now a spring romance hasn't got a chance
Promised my first dance to winter

ELLA FITZGERALD

For thou, O Spring! canst renovate
All that high God did first create.

RALPH WALDO EMERSON

Spring has come again. The earth is like a child who knows poems by heart.

The Poetry of Rilke

The trees are cloth'd with leaves, the fields with grass;
The blossoms blow; the birds on bushes sing;
And Nature has accomplish'd all the spring.

VIRGIL

Eclogues

I suppose the best kind of spring morning is the best weather God has to offer.

DODIE SMITH

I Capture the Castle


The year's at the spring,
And day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hill-side's dew-pearl'd;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn;
God's in His heaven--
All's right with the world!

ROBERT BROWNING

Pippa Passes

The spring came suddenly, bursting upon the world as a child bursts into a room, with a laugh and a shout and hands full of flowers.

Nothing is so beautiful as Spring--
When weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush.

GERARD MANLEY HOPKINS

"Spring"


Come Next Spring
When all the world is new
And fresh
And green
And fair
Then I'll come home
And I'll carry in my heart
Just one prayer
That I'll find you
Still waiting for my arms
We'll meet
We'll kiss
We'll cling
And then once more
Love will blossom as before
Come
Come on next spring

SCOTT WALKER

"Come Next Spring"


Reviving Spring, a toast to thy fresh lips!
Thy blush is music, and e'en heaven lurks
In thy thick perfumed hair that hangs about
Thy flowered shoulders like enchanted rain;
Thy sigh is song and thy soft breath a balm,
Dispelling death -- soft loosing his cold grip,
Unravelling darkness in the heart of pain,
As o'er dank waters rings the laugh of dawn.

WILLIAM BATCHELDER GREENE

In the Spring a fuller crimson comes upon the robin's breast;
In the Spring the wanton lapwing gets himself another crest;
In the Spring a livelier iris changes on the burnish'd dove;
In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.

ALFRED TENNYSON

Locksley Hall

Tags: Alfred Tennyson


It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what.

JOHN GALSWORTHY

The Forsyte Saga

Out of the city, far away
With Spring today!
Where copse tufted with primrose
Give me repose,
Wood-sorrel and wild violet
Soothe my soul's fret.

WILLIAM ALLINGHAM

"A Holiday"


As the days grew old
And the nights passed into time
And the weeks and years took wind
Gentle boy, tender girl
Their love remained still young
For their hearts were full of spring

THE BEACH BOYS

"Their Hearts Were Full of Spring"


Spring is the time of plans and projects.

LEO TOLSTOY

Anna Karenina

Tags: Leo Tolstoy


Now 'tis the spring, and weeds are shallow-rooted;
Suffer them now, and they'll o'ergrow the garden,
And choke the herbs for want of husbandry.

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Henry VI

Tags: William Shakespeare


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.

ANNE BRADSTREET

Meditations Divine and Moral

O wind of spring, you are a stranger,
Why do you enter through the silken curtains of my bower?

LI BAI

"The Intruder"

All the henfolk are hatchin', while their menfolk are scratchin'
To ensure the survival of each brand new arrival
Each nest is twittering, they're all babysittering
Spring, spring, spring

FRED ASTAIRE
