For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.
Edwin Way Teale
“
It was one of those perfect English autumnal days which occur more frequently in memory than in life.
P.D. James
“
Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.
Stanley Horowitz
“
Bittersweet October. The mellow, messy, leaf-kicking, perfect pause between the opposing miseries of summer and winter.
Carol Bishop Hipps
“
No spring nor summer's beauty hath such grace As I have seen in one Autumnal face....
John Donne, "Elegy IX: The Autumnal"
“
Autumn carries more gold in its pocket than all the other seasons.
Jim Bishop
“
Autumn is a second spring when every leaf's a flower.
Albert Camus
“
Autumn arrives in the early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day.
Elizabeth Bowen
“
Action must be taken at the first signs of disruption or decay, otherwise disaster will follow as ice-bound water follows brief autumn frosts.
I Ching
“
Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.
Emily Bronte
“
Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile.
William Cullen Bryant
“
No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace, As I have seen in one autumnal face.
John Donne
“
The Autumn is old; The sere leaves are flying; He hath gather'd up gold, And now he is dying; Old age, begin sighing!
Thomas Hood
“
The teeming Autumn big with rich increase, bearing the wanton burden of the prime like widowed wombs after their lords decease.
William Shakespeare
“
No man can taste the fruits of autumn while he is delighting his scent with the flowers of spring.
Samuel Johnson
“
Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.
George Eliot
“
There is a harmony in autumn, and a luster in its sky, which through the summer is not heard or seen, as if it could not be, as if it had not been!
Percy Bysshe Shelley
“
Now Autumn's fire burns slowly along the woods and day by day the dead leaves fall and melt.
William Allingham
“
Autumn wins you best by this, its mute Appeal to sympathy for its decay.
Robert Browning
“
Wild is the music of autumnal winds the faded woods.
William Wordsworth
“
The wind blows out, the bubble dies; The spring entomb'd in autumn lies; The dew dries up; the star is shot; The flight is past, and man forgot.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
“
Nothing is more fleeting than external form, which withers and alters like the flowers of the field at the appearance of autumn.
Umberto Eco
“
Autumn is a season followed immediately by looking forward to spring.
Doug Larson
“
The leaves fall, the wind blows, and the farm country slowly changes from the summer cottons into its winter wools.
Henry Beston
“
October is a symphony of permanence and change.
Bonaro W. Overstreet
“
If winter is slumber and spring is birth, and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection. It's a time of year when the leaves are down and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year and it's time to reflect on what's come before.
Mitchell Burgess
“
When the bold branches Bid farewell to rainbow leaves - Welcome wool sweaters.
B. Cybrill
“
In the garden, Autumn is, indeed the crowning glory of the year, bringing us the fruition of months of thought and care and toil. And at no season, safe perhaps in Daffodil time, do we get such superb colour effects as from August to November.
Rose G. Kingsley
“
Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; And only he who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
“
Thus sung the shepherds till th' approach of night, The skies yet blushing with departing light, When falling dews with spangles deck'd the glade, And the low sun had lengthened every shade.
Alexander Pope
