"Winter's best fest is February's snow serene."

After an extra-long introduction to the year, we're so glad to see our calendars flip to February! For one, it's the shortest month of the year, which makes it feel like spring is right around the corner. And speaking of seasons, it also marks the end of winter! But then there's still plenty of time to cozy up with a hot cup of love, thanks to Valentine's Day in the middle of the month. All of this back and forth can make February feel a bit difficult to define. Instead of trying to make meaning of the month yourself, check out this list of the best February quotes.

These quotes are pretty great. Some admire the month, using pleasant words to describe it. This one from Charmaine J. Forde shows just that: "Though February is short, it is filled with lots of love and sweet surprises." Others on this list are a bit more comical. (We didn't say that everyone liked the month!) Read this one by Lemony Snicket for a chuckle: "February is the shortest month, so if you’re having a miserable month, try to schedule it for February." There are also a bunch of winter quotes on here that double as winter Instagram captions, too!

Just read through these February quotes, and you'll see why the second month of the year might be the most fascinating one of them all.

Warm up your February with these ideas:
