All my life I have risen regularly at four o'clock and have gone into the woods and talked to God. There He gives me my orders for the day.

Believe. The promise of God are real. They are as real, as solid, yes infinitely more solid than this table which the materialist so thoroughly believes in. If you would only believe, O ye of little faith.

I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for ones self.

Young people, I want to beg of you always keep your eyes open to what Mother Nature has to teach you. By so doing you will learn many valuable things every day of your life.

To those who have as yet not learned the secret of true happiness, which is the joy of coming into the closest relationship with the Maker and Preserver of all things: begin now to study the little things in your own door yard.

All flowers talk to me and so do hundreds of little living things in the woods. I learn what I know by watching and loving everything.

Whatever you love opens its secrets to you.
