One day's exposure to mountains is better than cartloads of books. See how willingly Nature poses herself upon photographers' plates. No earthly chemicals are so sensitive as those of the human soul.

There is that in the glance of a flower which may at times control the greatest of creation's braggart lords.

How narrow we selfish conceited creatures are in our sympathies! How blind to the rights of all the rest of creation!

God has to nearly kill us sometimes, to teach us lessons.

The last days of this glacial winter are not yet past; we live in 'creation's dawn.' The morning stars still sing together, and the world, though made, is still being made and becoming more beautiful every day.

Hidden in the glorious wildness like unmined gold.

Any fool can destroy trees, they cannot run away.
