للشباب رومانسيّته، وللنضج حكمته، كما للصباح والربيع نضارتهما، وللظهيرة والصيف قوّتهما، وللّيل والشتاء سكينتهما. ولكلّ صفةٍ حسنها في موسمها.

“Youth has its romance, and maturity its wisdom, as morning and spring have their freshness, noon and summer their power, night and winter their repose. Each attribute is good in its own season.”Charlotte Bronte
