(no cost; rain or shine) Childhood is a wilderness. - Aspen Matis Nature and wisdom never are at strife. - Plutarch I'm walking here! I'm walking here! - Midnight Cowboy Nature always wears the colors of the spirit. - Ralph Waldo Emerson Out of defeat can come the best in human nature. - Billy Graham Jesus was a hiker. The wilderness was His retreat. - Toni Sorenson Death is nature's way of telling you to slow down. - Unknown Chocolate is nature's way of making up for Mondays. - Unknown We all want Canaan without going through the wilderness. - Ravi Zacharias I have lived long enough to satisfy both nature and glory. - Julius Caesar Nature does not loathe virtue: it is unaware of its existence. - Francois Malet-Joris I love hiking, paddle boarding and listening to the Veronicas. - Bindi Irwin Nature is often hidden, sometimes overcome, seldom extinguished. - Francis Bacon Go often to the house of a friend, for weeds choke the unused path. - Ralph Waldo Emerson One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea. - Walter Bagehot Virture offers the only path in this life that leads to tranquility. - Juvenal There is not so variable a thing in nature as a lady's head-dress. - Joseph Addison He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom. - JRR Tolkien Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light. - Helen Keller I feel like a midget with muddy feet had been walking over my tongue all night. - WC Fields Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character. - Ralph Waldo Emerson Every artist dips his brush in his own soul and paints his own nature into his pictures. - Henry Ward Beecher A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. - Ingrid Bergman Like all refugees, I am imprinted with the nature of loss and the necessity for reinvention. - Adrienne Clarkson Some folks look at me and see a certain swagger, which in Texas is called 'walking.' - George W. Bush Copy nature and you infringe on the work of our Lord. Interpret nature and you are an artist. - Jacques Lipchitz He must have a truly romantic nature, for he weeps when there is nothing at all to weep about. - Oscar Wilde I think Nature's imagination is so much greater than man's, she's never gonna let us relax! - Richard P Feynman If you do not expect the unexpected you will not find it, for it is not to be reached by search or trail. - Heraclitus Humility before the flower at the timber line is the gate which gives access to the path up the open fell. - Dag Hammarskjold A path full of potholes must be traveled slowly, but there's no reason you can't finish the journey. - Faydra D. Fields There is not better way of exercising the imagination than the study of law. No poet ever interpreted nature as freely as a lawyer interprets the truth. - Jean Giraudoux Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity. - John Muir You have to stay in shape. My grandmother, she started walking five miles a day when she was 60. She's 97 today and we still don't know where she is. - Ellen DeGeners The holy passion of friendship is so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring in nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money. - Mark Twain What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but, scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable. - Joseph Addison Physics is nothing but the ABC's. Nature is an equation with an unknown, a Hebrew word which is written only with consonants to which reason has to add the dots. - Johann G. Hamann For writers, handing a manuscript off to an editor is like walking into a parole hearing. You’ve done the time but wonder if it’s going to satisfy the judge. - Shandy L. Kurth Hit the sawdust trail, fall on your knees, and receive Christ as your Savior. Then walk out of this tent into the street, get hit by a Mack truck, and go straight to heaven. - Billy Sunday Interwoven with our affairs is this wonderful spirit of irony which prevents us from ever being utterly and irretrievably serious, from being unaware of the mysterious nature of our existence. - Malcolm Muggeridge see also Hiking & Inspiration Sections Bear Print Falls Trail Tree Side Walk |
