There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Nature is full of genius, full of the divinity; so that not a snowflake escapes its fashioning hand.
— Henry David Thoreau
Even if there were two of me, I still couldn't do all that has to be done. No matter what, though, I keep up my running. Running every day is a kind of lifeline for me, so I'm not going to lay off or quit just because I'm busy. If I used being busy as an excuse not to run, I'd never run again. I have only a few reasons to keep on running, and a truckload of them to quit. All I can do is keep those few reasons nicely polished.
– Haruki Murakami
May it be a light to you in dark places, when all other lights go out.
– J. R. R. Tolkien
And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.
Roald Dahl
Everything good, everything magical, happens between the months of June and August.
Jenny Han, The Summer I Turned Pretty
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle
Albert Einstein

May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day.—
May songbirds serenade you every step along the way.
May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that’s always blue.
And May happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.
Irish blessing
I have thoughts which, if I could reveal them and make them come alive, would add new brightness to the stars, new beauty to the world and greater love to the hearts of men
— Fernando Pessoa
Most do not understand the wonderful opportunities life gives until they look back at their life.
– Eric Handler
Life is about choices. Some we regret, some we’re proud of. Some will haunt us forever. The message: we are what we chose to be.
– Graham Brown
I would far rather have two or three lilies of the valley gathered for me by a person I like, than the most expensive bouquet that can be bought.
- Elizabeth Gaskell
Each one of us has it in themselves to be a free spirit, just as every rose bud has in it a rose.
Rudolf Steiner
The poppy’s fleeting bloom teaches us to treasure the present.
