An aphorism is nothing else but the slightest
QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON SPRING
Nothing is so beautiful as spring -- when weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush; Thrush's eggs look little low heavens, and thrush through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring the ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing.
Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-1889, British poet)
For like as herbs and trees bringing forth fruit and flourish in May, in likewise every lusty heart that is in any manner a lover, springeth and flourisheth in lusty deeds.
Sir Thomas Malory (1430-1471, British author)
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May.
William Shakespeare (1564-1616, British poet, playwright, actor)
