Some of the most compelling parts of this book were the quotes interspersed throughout -
Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.
-Rachel Carson
From wonder into wonder existence opens.
-Lao-Tzu
I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in tune once more.
-John Burroughs
I am well again, I came to life in the cool winds and crystal waters of the mountains.
-John Muir
Each new year is a surprise to us. We find that we had virtually forgotten the note of each bird, and when we hear it again, it is remembered like a dream, reminding us of a previous state of existence... The voice of nature is always encouraging.
-Henry David Thoreau
- and the idea of renewal. Ah, renewal. I'm already dreaming of spring, and it's not yet December. Eek!
