Living with Nature

San Vicente, Ilocos Sur

"And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair."

- Kahlil Gibran

It was in the forest that I found "the peace that passeth understanding"

 - Jane Goodall

"On earth there is no heaven, but there are pieces of it." 

- Jules Renard

"In the woods, we return to reason and faith. There I feel that nothing can befall me in life, - no disgrace, no calamity (leaving me my eyes), which nature cannot repair."-  Ralph Waldo Emerson

"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy amidst the simple beauty of nature. ...I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles." 

- Anne Frank

"These are brand-new birds of

  twelve-months' growing,

  Which a year ago, or less than twain,

  No finches were, nor nightingales,

  Nor thrushes,

  But only particles of grain,

  And earth and air, and rain."- Thomas Hardy

I am in love with this world . . . I have climbed its mountains, roamed its forests, sailed its waters, crossed its deserts, felt the sting of its frosts, the oppression of its heats, the drench of its rains, the fury of its winds, and always have beauty and joy waited upon my goings and comings."

- John Burroughs

"Wildness is the preservation of the world" 

- Henry David Thoreau

"You didn't come into this world. You came out of it,

 like a wave from the ocean. You are not a stranger here."  

- Alan Watts

"What a joy it is to feel the soft, springy earth under my feet 

once more, to follow grassy roads that lead to ferny brooks

where I can bathe my fingers in a cataract of rippling notes,

or to clamber over a stone wall into green fields that

tumble and roll and climb in riotous gladness!"

- Helen Keller

"In those vernal seasons of the year, when the air is calm and pleasant, it were an injury and sullenness against Nature not to go out and see her riches, and partake in her rejoicing with heaven and earth."

- John Milton ~
