For The First Day Of Spring

 

It's the first day of Spring and I've been really excited for it. Combine that with the fact that I've missed doing posts like this lately, you end up here. None of this particularly makes sense together, but I had fun finding quotes, listening to music, and that's all that matters. On that note, if my blog does weird things at any point I'm probably playing with the settings. Just fyi.

'Pete Wyatt woke as a stranger in the world of miracles. He was neither a saint nor a pilgrim. He was just a kid waking too late in the morning in the back of a stranger's egg-yellow Mercury.' -Maggie Stiefvater (All the Crooked Saints)

'You can hear a miracle a long way after dark...' -Maggie Stiefvater (All The Crooked Saints)

'It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot 

and the wind blows cold: 

when it is summer in the light and

 winter in the shade.'

-Charles Dickens (Great Expectations)

'Is the Spring coming? He said. "What is it like?"

...It is the rain falling on the sunlight and the 

rain falling on the sunshine.'

-Frances Hodgson Burnett (The Secret Garden)

'I write this sitting in the kitchen sink. That is, my feet are in it, 

the rest of me is on the draining board.'

-Dodie Smith (I Capture the Castle)

'I've been keeping up appearances all my life. Now I'm going in for realities.

Appearances can go hang!' -L.M. Montgomery (The Blue Castle) 

'In the Spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.' -Margaret Atwood 

'It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folks

that keep darkness at bay.

Small acts of kindness and love.'

-J.R.R. Tolkien (Lord of the Rings)

'There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.' -C.S Lewis

'Based on the way I react when toast pops out of the toaster, I will never look cool walking away from an explosion.' -Pinterest somewhere

Happy first day of Spring!
