The catchy phrase (or at least an original version of it) has been attributed to a 16th-century poet named <a href=\"https:\/\/issuu.com\/metrolibrary\/docs\/may_2023_info_magazine\/s\/23810746#:~:text=According%20to%20folks%20who%20have,for%20them%2C%20flowers%20are%20everywhere.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Thomas Tusser<\/a>, though it has since graduated to become a famous English proverb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quote, of course, speaks to April\u2019s customarily rainy weather, which we must endure to experience the blooms and beauty of May. But, its meaning also transcends the outdoor conditions. The month symbolizes growth, change and a reawakening of emotions, which can shower us with uncertainty and discomfort\u2014especially following those slower winter months. Between this, the gloomy precipitation and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.success.com\/small-business-tax-tips\/\">tax day<\/a> as an added stressor, it\u2019s easy to see why many of us have mixed feelings about April.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why we\u2019ve assembled a list of April quotes and sayings that bring to light the magic of the month. For example, we hit the ground running on April 1st with a day of lighthearted tomfoolery. Many people will gather for Easter during this month, and we\u2019ll take a moment to appreciate our planet on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.success.com\/5-easy-ways-to-celebrate-earth-day\/\">Earth Day<\/a>. Glimpses of sunshine are bound to be sprinkled in with the rain, and before you know it, you\u2019ll be stopping to smell the roses in May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/speakers.success.com\/speakers\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.success.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/SUCCESS_speakers_bureau_CTA_r1@2x.png\" alt=\"SUCCESS Speakers Bureau offer\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inspirational-quotes-for-the-month-of-april-to-stay-positive\">Inspirational Quotes for the Month of April to Stay Positive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No season or month comes without faults. Some bad inevitably trickles in with the good. And, in the month of April, with so much change (and precipitation) in the air, that trickle can sometimes feel like a downpour.

wp:paragraph -->\n<p>They say that April showers bring May flowers. The catchy phrase (or at least an original version of it) has been attributed to a 16th-century poet named <a href=\"https:\/\/issuu.com\/metrolibrary\/docs\/may_2023_info_magazine\/s\/23810746#:~:text=According%20to%20folks%20who%20have,for%20them%2C%20flowers%20are%20everywhere.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Thomas Tusser<\/a>, though it has since graduated to become a famous English proverb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>The quote, of course, speaks to April\u2019s customarily rainy weather, which we must endure to experience the blooms and beauty of May. But, its meaning also transcends the outdoor conditions. The month symbolizes growth, change and a reawakening of emotions, which can shower us with uncertainty and discomfort\u2014especially following those slower winter months. Between this, the gloomy precipitation and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.success.com\/small-business-tax-tips\/\">tax day<\/a> as an added stressor, it\u2019s easy to see why many of us have mixed feelings about April.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>This is why we\u2019ve assembled a list of April quotes and sayings that bring to light the magic of the month.

Many people will gather for Easter during this month, and we\u2019ll take a moment to appreciate our planet on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.success.com\/5-easy-ways-to-celebrate-earth-day\/\">Earth Day<\/a>.

Some bad inevitably trickles in with the good. And, in the month of April, with so much change (and precipitation) in the air, that trickle can sometimes feel like a downpour.
