“If children have an interest in nature, they will understand. I want them to become people who appreciate the consequences the next generation will suffer if we destroy our natural surroundings. So without a doubt, they need to learn that nature is vital to us by experiencing it. I want them to like nature and to climb mountains and so on.” PeopleIfsWantNeedsChildrenSufferingNextInterestNaturalDoubtGenerationsMountainConsequenceAppreciateClimbsSurroundingsNext Generation Author:Tamae Watanabe
“Do not feed children on a maudlin sentimentalism or dogmatic religion; give them nature. Let their souls drink in all that is pure and sweet. Rear them, if possible, amid pleasant surroundings ... Let nature teach them the lessons of good and proper living, combined with an abundance of well-balanced nourishment. Those children will grow to be the best men and women. Put the best in them by contact with the best outside. They will absorb it as a plant absorbs the sunshine and the dew.” IfsMenGivingWellsChildrenSoulGrowsWalksTeachJourneySweetWalkingDrinkLessonsPureMen And WomenPlantContactWanderPleasantAbundanceBeing The BestSunshineHikingBalancedSurroundingsDewNourishmentTrekkingStrollingSaunteringDogmatic Author:Luther Burbank
