Spring quotes
Latest Spring quotes:
The only thing that could spoil a day was people. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself. We moved over to Silver Spring, actually near University Park. Man is born passionate of body, but with an innate though secret tendency to the love of Good in his main-spring of Mind. But God help us all! It is at present a sad jar of atoms. If those who are the enemies of innocent amusements had the direction of the world, they would take away the spring, and youth, the former from the year, the latter from human life.
