End of February Quotes

Well, this has been a chilly February and I am glad to see March coming in. I am going to make a simple farewell to February with some quotes about the month itself. :)

"Why, what's the matter,
That you have such a February face,
So full of frost, of storm and cloudiness?" ~Shakespeare in Much Ado About Nothing

FAREWELL to February faces!

~ ~ ~ 

For some ridiculous reason, to which, however, I've no desire to be disloyal,
Some person in authority, I don't know who, very likely the Astronomer Royal,
Has decided that, although for such a beastly month as February, twenty-eight days as a rule are plenty,
One year in every four his days shall be reck0ned as nine and twenty. ~ Gilbert, The Pirates of Penzance

FAREWELL to the beastly month! 

~ ~ ~ 

Every mile is two in winter. ~ George Herbert

FAREWELL to double miles!

February, when the days of winter seem endless and no amount of wistful recollecting can bring back any air of summer. ~ Shirley Jackson

FAREWELL to endless (cold) and here's looking to the "air of summer."
