“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)

Autumn, the year’s last, loveliest smile. William Cullen Bryant

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

No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace, As I have seen in one autumnal face. John Donne

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf’s a flower. Albert Camus
