...in southern Brazil.

So many quotes. I looked for special Winter quotes. I found them and they are beautiful. However, they don´t match Wintertime in the southern world. Probably the writers of the south never
wrote about our Winters...or I simply didn´t find them.
No problem.
Here is a beautiful quotation, about Wintertime in other spheres... :)

*


Nature has many scenes to exhibit, and constantly draws a curtain over this part or that. She is constantly repainting the landscape and all surfaces, dressing up some scene for our entertainment. Lately we had a leafy wilderness; now bare twigs begin to prevail, and soon she will surprise us with a mantle of snow. Some green she thinks so good for our eyes that, like blue, she never banishes it entirely from our eyes, but has created evergreens.
~Henry David Thoreau, Nov. 8, 1858
