When March goes on forever,
And April's twice as long,
Who gives a damn if spring has come,
As long as winter's gone.
- R. L. Ruzicka

Botanists say that trees need the powerful March winds to flex their trunks and main branches, so the sap is drawn up to nourish the budding leaves. Perhaps we need the gales of life in the same way, though we dislike enduring them.
- Jane Truax
