There is that in the glance of a flower which may at times control the greatest of creations braggart lords. – John Muir
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Natures peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you… while cares will drop off like autumn leaves. – John Muir
Keep close to Natures heart… and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean. – John Muir
