Autumn
No Spring, nor Summer beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one Autumnal face.
— John Donne, The Autumnal
Autumn is the most poetic of all seasons because it speaks with a double voice. With one voice it says that everything is ripe. With the other it says that everything is dying.

“ Nobody is saying baseball isn’t big, but Good Friday is really big.
• The Rev. Ed Vilkauskas of Detroit’s St. Mary’s Catholic Church. All 30 Major League Baseball teams play on Good Friday, April 10th, but the Detroit Tigers’ 1:05 pm EST game against the Texas Rangers is the only one scheduled during holy hours.

“ How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing. A schedule defends from chaos and whim. It is a net for catching days. It is a scaffolding on which a worker can stand and labor with both hands at sections of time. A schedule is a mock-up of reason and order—willed, faked, and so brought into being; it is a peace and a haven set into the wreck of time; it is a lifeboat on which you find yourself, decades later, still living.
• Annie Dillard
