Spring Green Town

Famous quotes containing the words spring, green and/or town:

    all ignorance toboggans into know
    and trudges up to ignorance again:
    but winter’s not forever, even snow
    melts; and if spring should spoil the game, what then?

    all history’s a winter sport or three:
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)

    they stand so still
    in the thunder air, all strangers to one another
    as the green grass glows upwards, strangers in the garden.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    A blessing through the ages thus
    Shield all thy roofs and towers!
    God with the fathers, so with us,
    Thou darling town of ours!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
