“Towns are suffering from all these things, we should unite until we are all satisfied, man cannot be killing each other as if we were animals, as if we had no culture; that is a lack of culture.” IfsMenShouldSufferingCultureAnimalTownsKillingSatisfiedKilling Each Other Author:Compay Segundo
“Tell me what you will of the benefactions of city civilization, of the sweet security of streets-all as part of the natural upgrowth of man towards the high destiny we hear so much of. I know that our bodies were made to thrive only in pure air, and the scenes in which pure air is found. If the death exhalations that brood the broad towns in which we so fondly compact ourselves were made visible, we should flee as from a plague. All are more or less sick; there is not a perfectly sane man in San Francisco.” IfsKnowsMenShouldMadeBodyFoundNaturalCitiesDestinyAirStreetsSecuritySweetCivilizationScenePureTravelSickTownsVisibleThriveBroadsSanePlagueSan FranciscoCompact Book:John Muir, in His Own Words: A Book of Quotations Source: John Muir, in His Own Words: A Book of Quotations
“The morns are meeker than they were, The nuts are getting brown; The berry's cheek is plumper, The rose is out of town. The maple wears a gayer scarf, The field a scarlet gown. Lest I should be old-fashioned, I'll put a trinket on.” ShouldFallFieldsTownsRoseBrownAutumnNutsCheeksOld FashionedNovemberBerriesGownsScarletScarvesFall AutumnFall SeasonMapleAutumn SeasonTrinketsOctober And FallNovember Poems Book:Poems Source: Poems
