"I want more, however...

"I want indigo buntings singing their couplets when I wake in the morning...  I want oak leaves and dogwood blossoms and fireflies... I want to go swimming naked in the hot sun down at the river.

That is why I have stopped sleeping inside. A house is too small, too confining. I want the whole world, and the stars too."

--Sue Hubbell, in A Country Year: Living the Questions.
