“Spring was moving in the air above and in the earth below and around him, penetrating even his dark and lowly little house with its spirit of divine discontent and longing.”

“I love not man the less, but Nature more”

“Spring is nature's way of saying, 'Let's party!”

“I wandered lonely as a cloud.”

“The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us, the less taste we shall have for destruction.”
