The word “foliage” translates the Italian “fogliame” (i.e. a cluster of leaves, branches and flowers) but its meaning does not include the spectacular time of the year when woods start changing the colour of their leaves. Yet, even though there is not a single word for that – you should explain with it a long sentence – the event does exist. Enjoy!
“The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
“From tiny acorns, do mighty oaks grow” ~ Geoffrey Chaucer
Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives – choice, not chance, determines your destiny.” ~Aristotle

This summer too, is coming to a close; the longest and hottest ever. We will miss it, because, as Ennio Flaiano said:
“There is only one season: summer. So gorgeous that the others ring around it. Autumn recalls it, winter beseeches it, spring envies it and childishly tries to spoil it.” ~Ennio Flaviano
Anche questa estate è ormai al tramonto, la più lunga e calda di sempre. Ci mancherà perché come ha detto Flaiano:
“Non c’è che una stagione: l’estate. Tanto bella che le altre le girano attorno. L’autunno la ricorda, l’inverno la invoca, la primavera la invidia e tenta puerilmente di guastarla.”
“My soul is full of longing
for the secret of the sea,
and the heart of the great ocean
sends a thrilling pulse through me.”
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Every one of a hundred thousand cities around the world had its own special sunset and it was worth going there, just once, if only to see the sun go down.” ~Ryū Murakami
