In Reply to: Origin of leaf turning? posted by SR on November 16, 2004

: In a previous post I used 'turn over a new leaf.' I searched the archives but found no previous discussion on the origin of the phrase. Any ideas?

think of a book - perhaps a log or a diary - turn the page and you start afresh. I'll leaf that with you.
