Autumn Quotes

[agdhani.livejournal.com]

Because I'm looking forward to the arrival of autumn (and the dwindling of wildfire season)...despite my sinuses complaints to the contrary, I come bearing a collection of autumn-related quotes for inspiration.

Give me one or more number between 1 and 60 and I will present you with the corresponding quote. In return, you are tasked with the joyous responsibility of 200 words or 2 icons or a banner inspired by the goodness of fall to be completed by midnight on September 30th.

Simple, right?
