Thoughts While Listening To The Falling Rain
All was silent as before - All silent save the dripping rain. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Many a man curses the rain that falls upon his head, 
and knows not that it brings abundance to drive away the hunger.  Saint Basil

A rainy day is the perfect time for a walk in the woods.  Rachel Carson

There's always a period of curious fear between the first sweet-smelling breeze
and the time when the rain comes cracking down.  Don Delillo

There is little chance that meteorologists can solve the mysteries
of weather until they gain an understanding of the mutual attraction
of rain and weekends.  Arnot Sheppard

I am sure it is a great mistake always to know enough to go in when it rains. 
One may keep snug and dry by such knowledge, 
but one misses a world of loveliness.  Adeline Knapp

The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain.  Longfellow

It is one of the secrets of Nature in its mood of mockery that fine weather
lays heavier weight on the mind and hearts of the depressed and the 
inwardly tormented than does a really bad day with dark rain sniveling 
continuously and sympathetically from a dirty sky.  Muriel Spark

Don't knock the weather; nine-tenths of the people couldn't start a conversation if it didn't change once in a while.  ~Kin Hubbard
