Shhh

Nature Quote of the Day:
"Sound is the vocabulary of nature."
-Pierre Schaeffer


Mmmm. So in order to speak and understand what nature is saying, you have to be still and listen.

I like that. I need to have a conversation with nature more often.

- John Burroughs

I found this quote that I really liked. I'm not sure I fit it completely, but I'd like it to:

"The naturalist wanders with an inquiring eye, pauses, ponders, notes the bloom of a prairie pasqueflower. It is a tradition that goes back to Aristotle and earlier: observing and identifying earth's myriad life-forms, and discovering the connections that bind them. For those with such interests, said British naturalist Miriam Rothschild, 'life can never be long enough.'" - American Naturalist-Writer John Hay
