If to ask a foreigner what season he associates with Russia then he’ll more likely answer – winter. And that is explainable. Traditionally, it’s the most cold part of the year. Here is the set of beautiful images of winter and winter quotes.
Let’s start with Lewis Carroll, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass. “I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says “Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”
