101 (D-30) More quotations from John Muir


101 (D-30) John Muir wrote:

--"Keep close to Nature's heart...and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean."

--"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

--"In every walk with Nature, one receives far more than he seeks."
