“In Spring all trees become pregnant”

Vitruvius book De architectura

Source: De architectura (The Ten Books On Architecture) (~ 15BC), Book II, Chapter IX "Timber" Sec. 1
Context: In Spring all trees become pregnant, and they are all employing their natural vigor in the production of leaves and of the fruits that return every year. The requirements of that season render them empty and swollen, and so they are weak and feeble because of their looseness of texture. This is also the case with women who have conceived. Their bodies are not considered perfectly healthy until the child is born.

“I am not your teacher. Because you have drunk, you have become intoxicated from the bubbling spring that I have tended.”

Thomas the Apostle Apostle of Jesus Christ

“I miss the fun of the underwater more than I miss the fashion shows, to dream up all this stuff and do something unique was fun. Where else could you do that? It didn't pay much money, probably $60 a week at Silver Springs, but it was plenty for me to live on. What I did was what other people considered hard work, but I thought it was fun.”

“I love people. I love my family, my children … but inside myself is a place where I live all alone and that's where you renew your springs that never dry up.”

Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973) American writer

As quoted in The New York Post (26 April 1959)

“I truly miss my youth but embrace the more mature man I've become. Living in Palm Springs, I am a spring chicken! So it's all relative.”
