Tove Jansson Quotes About Summer

• One summer morning at sunrise a long time ago I met a little girl with a book under her arm. I asked her why she was out so early and she answered that there were too many books and far too little time. And there she was absolutely right.

• Me encantan las fronteras. Agosto es la frontera entre el verano y el otoño; es el mes más hermoso que conozco. El crepúsculo es la frontera entre el día y la noche, y la orilla es la frontera entre el mar y la tierra. La frontera es el anhelo: cuando ambos se han enamorado pero aún no se han dicho nada. La frontera es estar en el camino. El camino es lo más importante.

• There are such a lot of things that have no place in summer and autumn and spring. Everything that’s a little shy and a little rum. Some kinds of night animals and people that don’t fit in with others and that nobody really believes in. They keep out of the way all the year. And then when everything’s quiet and white and the nights are long and most people are asleep—then they appear.
