"Beauty without colour seems somehow to belong to another world." ~Murasaki Shikibu

"To find the universal elements enough;
to find the air
and the water
exhilarating;
to be refreshed by a morning walk
or an evening saunter...
to be thrilled by the stars at night;
to be elated over a bird's nest
or a wildflower in spring -
these are some of the rewards
of the simple life."

~John Burroughs
