Let there be a heaven so that man may outlive his grasses Picture Quote #1

Emptiness is bound to bloom, like hundreds of grasses blossoming Picture Quote #1

Like the grasses showing tender faces to each other, thus should we do, for this was the wish of the Grandfathers of the World Picture Quote #1

Strong winds buffet the sea oats and tall dune grasses, tossing sand and seabirds where it will, winding my sister’s golden hair into sunlit spirals of silk until it becomes the only good memory I have of her -- the only memory I allowed myself to keep Picture Quote #1

Make the universe your companion, always bearing in mind the true nature of things-mountains and rivers, trees and grasses, and humanity-and enjoy the falling blossoms and the scattering leaves Picture Quote #1

I doubt very much that the chief executives of any of the Fortune 500 corporations can name five edible plants, five native grasses, or five migratory birds within walking distance of their homes, or name the soil series upon which their house sits. And I would contend that if you don’t know where you are, you are in fact nowhere at all Picture Quote #1

Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one’s head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace Picture Quote #1

Revolutionary consciousness is to be found among the most ruthlessly exploited masses: animals, trees, water, air, grasses Picture Quote #1

I was sitting in Arizona when I received Dogs on Cape Cod. Seeing the joy these dogs had playing on the beaches and in the marsh grasses on the Cape carried me back to my family visits in Harwich. The dogs are so full of life, it just made me smile Picture Quote #1

I saw the separateness of all things! My heart lifted up with the great grasses; the weeds believed me, and the nesting birds Picture Quote #1

The hurricane does not uproot grasses, which are pliant and bow low before it on every side. It is only the lofty trees that it attacks Picture Quote #1

Of course, food is to sustain life. Nevertheless, if we eat too much and in a disorderly way, we will die just like trees and grasses that receive too much fertilizer Picture Quote #1

Artificial selection turned the wolf into the shepherd, and the wild grasses into wheat and corn. In fact, almost every plant and animal that we eat today was bred from a wild, less edible ancestor. If artificial selection can work such profound changes in only ten or fifteen thousand years, what can natural selection do operating over billions of years? The answer is all the beauty and diversity of life Picture Quote #1

The dry grasses are not dead for me. A beautiful form has as much life at one season as another Picture Quote #1

There are nettles everywhere, but smooth, green grasses are more common still; the blue of heaven is larger than the cloud Picture Quote #1

From the grasses in the field to the stars in the sky, each one is doing just that; and there is such profound peace and surpassing beauty in nature because none of these tries forcibly to transgress its limitations Picture Quote #1

Her hair is bound with myrtle leaves, (Green leaves upon her golden hair! ) green grasses through the yellow sheaves of Autumn corn are not more fair Picture Quote #1

What idiocy, to racing into this story and its labyrinths, sprinting away from our happiness among the fresh spring grasses by the oak Picture Quote #1

The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy. Daily prayers are delivered on the lips of breaking waves, the whisperings of grasses, the shimmering of leaves Picture Quote #1

It is from the progeny of this parent cell that we all take our looks; we still share genes around, and the resemblance of the enzymes of grasses to those of whales is in fact a family resemblance Picture Quote #1

Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one’s head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace Picture Quote #1

Walk away quietly in any direction and taste the freedom of the mountaineer. Camp out among the grasses and gentians of glacial meadows, in craggy garden nooks full of nature’s darlings Picture Quote #1

I have once more taken up things that can’t be done: water with grasses weaving on the bottom. But I’m always tackling that sort of thing! Picture Quote #1

The legendary tumbleweed is really a nurse crop that protects the growth of prairie grasses under its shade, and then sacrifices itself and blows away Picture Quote #1

Since the age of six, I have had a passion for drawing things. Now that I am 75 years, I have finally learned something of the true quality of birds, animals, insects, fishes, and of the vital nature of grasses and trees. By the time I am 89, I shall have made more progress. By the time I am 90, I shall understand the deeper meaning of things. When I am 100, I shall be truly marvelous; and at 110 each dot and each line will possess a life of its own Picture Quote #1

Chance was to work in the garden, where he would care for plants and grasses and trees which grew there peacefully. He would be as one on them: quiet, open hearted in the sunshine and heavy when it rained Picture Quote #1

I held a blue flower in my hand, probably a wild aster, wondering what its name was, and then thought that human names for natural things are superfluous. Nature herself does not name them. The important thing is to know this flower, look at its color until the blends becomes as real as a keynote of music. Look at the exquisite yellow flowerettes at the center, become very small with them. Be the flower, be the trees, the blowing grasses. Fly with the birds, jump with a squirrel! Picture Quote #1

We must come to understand our past, our history, in terms of the soil and water and forests and grasses that have made it what it is Picture Quote #1

Do not arouse disdainful mind when you prepare a broth of wild grasses; do not arouse joyful mind when you prepare a fine cream soup Picture Quote #1
