Ralph Waldo Emerson

To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter; to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life.

Orison Swett Marden 

The mountain brows, the rocks, the peaks, are sleeping,

Uplands and gorges hush!

The thousand moorland things are stillness keeping;

The beasts under each bush

Crouch, and the hivèd bees

Rest in their honeyed ease;

In the purple sea fish lie as they were dead,

And each bird folds his wing over his head.

Alcman, Nature’s Calm

The feeblest - or the waywardest -
Her Admonition mild -
