“El Yauco is the mountain that stands across the Baluarte from Rosario. The top of it looks like the profile of John F. Kennedy in repose. The only flaw in this geographic wonder is that the nose is upside-down.

“Creatures at large GOD claims as his own peculiar property. All the Beasts of the Forest are Mine, faith the Mighty GOD, and so are the CATTLE upon a thousand Hills; I know all the FOWLS upon the Mountains, and the Wild BEASTS of the Field are in My Sight. With regard to these Creatures, He requires not our care or attention. He does not expect that we should concern or trouble ourselves about them. The Duty of Men concerning Animals that are wild by nature, lies in a very narrow compass - Let them alone. Being GOD's property, and in his fight, GOD will provide for them. And it is not enough for us, that we invade not their providence, but leave them unmolested and at liberty to perform the tasks, and answer the ends, for which GOD was pleased to create them.”

“We may have a lot of romantic ideas about Nature, but it has both a heavy and light aspect. Nature, as our primal ancestor and source of life, has the power to devour, destroy, and even abort us. We must learn to discern when we are approaching Nature with arrogance or the need to dominate, even if these attitudes lie beneath the surface.”
