“The great gift of Easter is hope.”
“Easter is the soul’s first taste of spring.”
“Spring adds new life and new joy to all that is.”
“Twas Easter-Sunday. The full-blossomed trees filled all the air with fragrance and with joy.”
“Easter spells out beauty, the rare beauty of new life.”
“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming.”
“Easter says you can put truth in a grave, but it won’t stay there.”
“The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.”
