Cozy Autumn Quotes

I’m loving this season so much: With the temperature finally below ninety, the leaves falling and cracking beneath my boots, the kitchen filled with the aroma of pumpkin spice, the knitted chenille sweater being worn daily, and the lovely realization that the holidays are coming soon.

Here are some quotes to celebrate and savor this short and sweet season 🫶🏼

🍂 “Wild is the music of the autumnal winds amongst the faded woods,” William Wordsworth

🍂 “November – with uncanny witchery in its changed trees. With murky red sunsets flaming in smoky crimson behind the westering hills.With dear days when the austere woods were beautiful and gracious in a dignified serenity of folded hands and closed eyes – days full of a fine, pale sunshine that sifted through the late, leafless gold of the juniper-trees and glimmered among the grey beeches, lighting up evergreen banks of moss and washing the colonnades of the pines.” – L.M. Montgomery, The Blue Castle

🍂“Autumn… the year’s last, loveliest smile.” John Howard Bryant

🍂“There is something incredibly nostalgic and significant about the annual cascade of autumn leaves.” Joe L. Wheeler

🍂“This October is for me. Withdrawing into my own world, blocking out everything except the beauty of the season, my reflections, and my relationship with God, I find that this is enough to sustain me through the long, cold winter, and beyond…” Peggy Toney Horton

🍂“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.” Emily Brontë

🍂“Autumn glows upon us like a splendid evening; it is the very sunset of the year.” Mary Russell Mitford

🍂“Anyone who thinks fallen leaves are dead has never watched them dance on a windy day.” Shira Tamir

🍂“After the keen, still days of September, the October sun filled the world with mellow warmth… The maple tree in front of the doorstep burned like a gigantic red torch. The oaks along the roadway glowed yellow and bronze. The fields stretched like a carpet of jewels, emerald topaz and garnet. Everywhere she walked the color shouted and changed around her.” Elizabeth George Speare

🍂“He found himself wondering at times, especially in the autumn, about the wild lands and strange visions of mountains that he had never seen came into his dreams.” J.R.R Tolkien
