Spring Festival

Famous quotes containing the words spring and/or festival:

    In almost all climes the tortoise and the frog are among the precursors and heralds of this season, and birds fly with song and glancing plumage, and plants spring and bloom, and winds blow, to correct this slight oscillation of the poles and preserve the equilibrium of nature.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.
