Come to the woods, for here is rest. There is no repose like that of the green deep woods. Here grow the wallflower and the violet. The squirrel will come and sit upon your knee, the logcock will wake you in the morning. Sleep in forgetfulness of all ill. Of all the upness accessible to mortals, there is no upness comparable to the mountains. - John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir

In God’s wildness lies the hope of the world – the great fresh unblighted, unredeemed wilderness. The galling harness of civilization drops off, and wounds heal ere we are aware. - John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir

  “The answer must be, I think, that beauty and Grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. The least we can do is try to be there.”  Annie Dillard - Pilgrim at Tinker Creek “You do not have to sit outside in the dark. If, however, you want to look at the stars, you will find that darkness is necessary. But the stars neither require nor demand it.”
Annie Dillard - Teaching a Stone to Talk   “May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.” ― Edward Abbey “Better a cruel truth than a comfortable delusion.” 
― Edward Abbey “Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. A civilization which destroys what little remains of the wild, the spare, the original, is cutting itself off from its origins and betraying the principle of civilization itself.” 
― Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire
