sqwook "Nature is a language and every new fact one learns is a new word ... I wish to learn this language, not that I may know a new grammar, but that I may read the great book which is written in that tongue."
-Emerson
"I learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings. In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude wil not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."
- Thoreau
"For it matters not how small the beginning may seem to be: what is once well done is done forever."
- Thoreau
"We cannot conserve what we do not know exists."
