"methinks my own soul must be a bright invisible green." /h.d. thoreau

"in the middle of the journey of our life i came to myself within a dark wood where the straight way was lost." /dante alighieri

"it's when i'm weary of considerations,
and life is too much like a pathless wood
where your face burns and tickles with the cobwebs
broken across it, and one eye is weeping
from a twig's having lashed across it open.
i'd like to get away from earth awhile
and then come back to it and begin over.
may no fate willfully misunderstand me
and half grant what i wish and snatch me away
not to return. earth's the right place for love:
i don't know where it's likely to go better."

/robert frost, birches

"nature never deceives us; it is always we who deceive ourselves." /jean-jacques rousseau

"to know of someone here and there whom we accord with, who is living on with us, even in silence--this makes our earthly ball a peopled garden." /j.w.v. goethe

"beauty in things exists in the mind which contemplates them." /david hume

"so shall we come to look at the world with new eyes. it shall answer the endless inquiry of the intellect, 'what is truth?' and of the affections, 'what is good?' by yielding itself passive to the educated will...build, therefore, your own world. as fast as you conform your life to the pure idea in your mind, that will unfold its great proportions. a correspondent revolution in things will attend the influx of the spirit." /r.w. emerson
