In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
-Albert Camus
Snow was falling,
So much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.
-Mary Oliver
Whose woods these are I think I know
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
-Robert Frost
My old grandmother always used to say, Summer friends will melt away like summer snows, but winter friends are friends forever.
-George R.R. Martin
Winter kept us warm, covering Earth in forgetful snow.
-T.S. Eliot
I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, ‘Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.'
-Lewis Carroll
I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage,
and tangled Christmas tree lights.
-Maya Angelou
