Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven. ~ Rabindranath Tagore ~ Nature ~ Friendship is a sheltering tree. ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge Some keep the Sabbath going to Church...I keep it staying at Home...With a bobolink for a Chorister...And an Orchard, for a Dome. ~ Emily Dickinson If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen. ~ Henry David Thoreau Nature abhors a vacuum, and if I can only walk with sufficient carelessness I am sure to be filled. ~ Henry David Thoreau Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a function. ~ Joseph Wood Krutch Everything in nature contains all the power of nature. Everything is made of one hidden stuff. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson From below the tree eats earth and drinks water through its roots. From above it partakes of fire and breathes air through its leaves. Every tree is a cosmic pole grounding Heaven in the soil of Earth and inspiring in Earth the soul of Heaven. ~ Pir Zia Inayat Khan My beloved is the mountains, the solitary wooded valleys, strange islands... silent music. ~ St. John of the Cross Deviation from nature is deviation from happiness. ~ Samuel Johnson Affirmations Politics Relationships Wisdom Women Writing. . .
