Flower Quote by Virginia Chase
““There was something else, she often told herself, that spring brought teachers. A sort of sadness--other people felt something like it, she supposed, at the end of the calendar year--a sadness that came from realizing that they hadn't kept the resolutions they had made in September. Resolutions to read more, to go to more concerts and plays, to get better acquainted in the community. They meant to do these things, and they usually hadn't, and they felt in the spring that they probably never would.””
