Ellen Glasgow Quotes

Cheers for spring; for life; for a growing soul.

Spring is when life's alive in everything.

Spring time is the land awakening.

The first sparrow of spring! The year beginning with younger hope than ever!

Spring, / you are a pinking shears: you cut / fresh edges on the world.

April ... hath put a spirit of youth in everything.

As flowerlets drooped and puckered in the night turn up to the returning sun and spread their petals wide on his new warmth and light-just so my wilted spirits rose again and such a heat of zeal surged through my veins that I was born anew.

Spring is very energising to me.

Oh, Spring! I want to go out and feel you and get inspiration. My old things seem dead. I want fresh contacts, more vital searching.

The month of May was come, when every lusty heart beginneth to blossom, and to bring forth fruit.

Spring is a true reconstructionist.

Sweet April showers do spring May flowers.

As little flowers, which the chill of night has bent and huddled, when the white sun strikes, grow straight and open fully on their stems, so did I, too, with my exhausted force.

The snow has at last melted, the fields regain their herbage, and the trees their leaves.

Like the seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.

Into every empty corner, into all forgotten things and nooks, nature struggles to pour life, pouring life into the dead, life into life itself.

Beginning with doom in the bulb, the spring unravels.

I rose as from the death that wipes out the sadness of life, and then dies itself in the new morrow.
