10 Cozy Quotes to Get You Excited for Fall

The sudden chill in the morning air tells me that fall has arrived. It’s time to move my coziest clothes to the front of the closet and light a few of my most delicious-smelling candles. Soon, dinner will be simmering on the stove all day while countless cups of tea will be sipped.

Can you tell that I adore fall? I know I am not the only one, which is why I wanted to share a few of my very favorite quotes about this wonderful time of year.
