The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt,
head in the sun, heart with nature.

but the soul.
- Alfred Austin
The goal of life is
to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe,
to match your nature with Nature.
- Joseph Campbell
Man's heart away from nature becomes hard.
- Standing Bear
Keep close to Nature's heart...
and break clear away, once in awhile,
and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods.
Wash your spirit clean.
- John Muir
