“Every man should wake up alone and spend thirty minutes outside. He should spend thirty minutes with the rising sun listening for birds while pacing back and forth in ponderous thought, with a cool breeze on his nose and his arms stretched into the open air.

Then he should go back to sleep.” SleepMorningSolitudeSpringAloneWildernessSunriseBirds Book:THIS SIDE OF A WILDERNESS: A Novel Source: THIS SIDE OF A WILDERNESS: A Novel
