“October is the cruelest month, breeding/ Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing/ Memory and desire, stirring/ Dull roots with spring rain.” -T.S Eliot

“Autumn seemed to arrive suddenly that year. The morning of the first September was crisp and golden as an apple.” – J.K. Rowling

“There is nothing so perfect in nature as an autumn sunset; everything seems at peace and sheds a gentle light on those who watch it. The colors are so rich, deep, and warm: such richness can only come from decay. But this same decay requires death, which means there must be life before or else there would never have been any color at all. Autumn reminds us that we cannot hold on too tightly lest we lose all thing beautiful.” -Carrie Fisher

“Mother Nature is God’s art gallery, his exhibit of the beauty he could create if given enough time.  Autumn leaves are proof that God had so much time that He made His art last.” -Edmund Burke.

“We could never have loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it, if it were not the earth where the same flowers come up again every spring that we used to gather with our tiny fingers as we sat lisping to ourselves on the grass, the same hips and haws on the autumn hedgerows, the same redbreasts that we used to call ‘God’s birds’ because they did no harm to the precious crops. What novelty is worth that sweet monotony where everything is known and loved because it is known?” — George Eliot

“Autumn is when you can walk through the grove as if each step were taken in prayer.” – Mary Anne Radmacher.

 

“In autumn think of the long days, and the rich fruits matured by the sun.” – Virgil

“The colorful language of leaves is best read in silence. When we see that our neighbor has donned his spring suit or is clad in his autumnal dress, we read the announcement of a great change which has already taken place within him.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson.

“The Autumnal season puts on its robes of change; The Summer’s sun no longer shines with warmth and flare; The Winter winds are quick, yet not too strong, To shake the trees untimely before their time. ‘Tis then, that I do seek the solace of the wood, And find my peace within a place so soft and hood.” -Marie Adelaide Belloc Lowndes

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” – L.M Montgomery

“No one has found any way to package autumn. There are no special ingredients. It’s just nature doing what it does best – wearing a showy dress in order to be noticed when she gives us the gift of her annual decay and renewal.” – Diane Ackerman

“The beautiful reds, yellows, and oranges are the flowers of Mother Nature.” -Michael Wolff

“There’s something about autumn that gives you the feeling of looking up at a crystal-clear blue sky on a frosty morning, while breathing in crisp air through dry cracked lips.” – Scott Harrison

“The sun shines weakly through the leafless trees, And all the living things of summer seem a year away. It seems like yesterday when I could look into your eyes: Autumn has come again.” – Patrick Rothfuss
