spring past delight
Pleasure to me is wonder—the unexplored, the unexpected, the thing that is hidden and the changeless thing that lurks behind superficial mutability.

spring unique reality
I think Barry Bonds was in a unique situation given his injuries from a year ago, the fact that he played in just 14 games.

Buck Martinez

Unjustly, but unavoidably, the very closeness of a great artist to his colleagues and contemporaries leads to their eclipse. Germaine Greer
spring mean science
Every great scientist becomes a great scientist because of the inner self-abnegation with which he stands before truth, saying: "Not my will, but thine, be done."

spring dust earth
Sphere Music - Some sounds seem to reverberate along the plain, and then settle to earth again like dust; such are Noise, Discord, Jargon. But such only as spring heavenward, and I may catch from steeples and hilltops in their upward course, which are the more refined parts of the former, are the true sphere music - pure, unmixed music - in which no wail mingles. Henry David Thoreau
