A collection of inspirational quotes and excerpts about new beginnings, overcoming difficulties, and the beauty of nature to motivate you in April 2022 or any other year.
What is April known for?
April, the fourth month of the Gregorian calendar and the second month of spring. It’s around this time that the weather gets warmer.
But, April probably, is best known for April Fools day. And also the Easter bunny who usually comes around during April.
Other facts about April include notable people born in April like Queen Elizabeth II, Thomas Jefferson, and Leonardo Da Vinci. It’s also the month where the famous- or is it infamous?- Titanic ship sank.
Given these facts, you can say that there were notable figures and history made in April. Although there were difficulties, there were also triumphs, and something positive.
Because of, and also based on these facts, I have selected 30 inspirational quotes for the month of April grouped as follows:
- New beginnings– since April is the second month of the spring season, a season of hope and rejuvenation.
- Facing and overcoming difficulties– considering that there were unfortunate incidents that happened in April, but they have passed and are now just part of history. And,
- The beauty of nature– Because the trees grow new leaves, the flowers start to bloom, and nature comes alive in spring. Not to mention that we celebrate Earth day in April. And that Leonardo Da Vinci, born in April, believed that art is connected with science, and yes, nature.
