“Glory follows afflictions, not as the day follows the night but as the spring follows the winter; for the winter prepares the earth for the spring, so do afflictions sanctified prepare the soul for glory.”

“Autumn to winter, winter into spring,
Spring into summer, summer into fall, —
So rolls the changing year, and so we change;
Motion so swift, we know not that we move.”

“The problem with winter sports is that -- follow me closely here -- they generally take place in winter.”

“To-day, in snow array'd, stern winter rules
The ravag'd plain—Anon the teeming earth
Unlocks her stores, and spring adorns the year:
And shall not we—while fate, like winter, frowns,
Expect revolving bliss?”

“God has prepared a path for everyone to follow.”

“Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart.”

“Yes, let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius.”

“No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.”

“If the following day he chance to find
A new repast, or an untasted spring,
Blesses his stars, and thinks it luxury.”

“O Wind,
If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?”
