Nature

Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.
~Antoinette Brown Blackwell (1825 - 1921)

This day

"Nothing is worth more than this day."
~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Hope

Hope is a thing with feathers
that perches on your soul.
~Emily Dickinson

Winter

"I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show."
- Andrew Wyeth

Mt Rainier Black-tailed deer

Wanton killing for sport, or euphemistically, for
"management" seems to me a poor way of demonstrating
our higher intelligence. Predators hunt to live.
Only man hunts for the sheer triumph of
killing. It is a fact that only man is uplifted
by the spectacle of an animal's death.
~Joan Ward-Harris

It Snowed!

"Begin doing what you want to do now. We have only this moment, sparking like a star in our hand--and melting like a snowflake." ~ ~Marie Beyon Ray

Women

Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition.
Timothy Leary (1920 - 1996)
~More quotations on: [Men And Women]

Trueness

You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward trueness at last.
~Vernon Howard

Ruby-crowned Kinglet

The past is finished. There is nothing to be gained by going over it. Whatever it gave us in the experiences it brought us was something we had to know.
~Rebecca Beard

Keeping your soul alive

To know what you prefer instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you you ought to prefer, is to have kept your soul alive.
~Robert Louis Stevenson
Scottish author (1850 - 1894)

Foggy morning

I dream, therefore I become.
~Cheryl Renée Grossman

Wild Horses

Nothing happens..... but first a dream
~Carl Sandburg
