A lesser moustache, under the impact of that quick, agonised expulsion of breath, would have worked loose at the roots.

P.D. Wodehouse

At the heart of every being lies creation’s dream of a principle that will one day give organic form to its fragmented treasures.

Pierre Tielhard de Jardin

You may think yourself lazy, or flawed. Yet your body is made of almost exactly the same elements as the stars. Your bone composition matches the coral in the seas and you, my friend, are ruled by the moon and the sun. Whether you like it or not. So no, you are not lazy, Nature is simply pulling you to slow, like the life, the floral and fauna around you. It is not your moment to rise. It is winter, you are wintering. And you are right on time.

Donna Ashworth

People travel to wonder
at the height of the mountains,
at the huge waves of the seas,
at the long course of the rivers,
at the vast compass of the ocean,
at the circular motion of the stars,
and yet they pass by themselves
without wondering.

Saint Augustine
