" We need the tonic of the wilderness.  The ocean, the mountains, the deserts, a wooded grove....all contain the Magic needed to restore pure radiant energy to a stressed soul.  Mother Earth in all of her infinite compassion and strength has remarkable powers to restore vitality.  Wash yourself in the pure water of the streams, put your bare feet on the good earth, fall asleep in the arms of an ancient tree.  There is good medicine to be found in nature.  It is long lasting and heals the soul."

                                                    -Henry David Thoreau

We all flow from one fountian - Soul.  All are expressions of one love.  God does not appear, and flow out, only from narrow chinks and round bored wells here and there in favored races and places, but He flows in grand undivided currents, shoreless and boundless over creeds and forms and all kinds of civilizations and peoples and beasts, saturating and fountainizing all.      - John Muir

On the inevitable changes in life:

One is constantly reminded of the infinite lavishness and fertility of Nature - inexhaustible abundance amid what seems enormous waste.  And yet when we look into any of her operations that lie within reach of our minds, we learn that no particle of her material is wasted or worn out.  It is eternally flowing from use to use, beauty to yet higher beauty; and we soon cease to lamet waste and death, and rather rejoice and exult in the imperishable, unspendable wealth of the universe, and faithfully watch and wait the reappearance of everything that melts and fades and dies about us, feeling sure that its next appearance will be better and more beautiful than the last..

-John Muir
