"Time and tide wait for no man,"

"love builds up the broken wall
and straigtens the crooked path.
love keeps the stars in the firmament
and imposes rhythm on te ocean tides
each of us is created of it
and i suspect
each of us was created for it"

"Summer ends, and Autumn comes, and he who would have it otherwise would have high tide always and a full moon every night"

"You must hear the birds song without attempting to render it into nouns and verbs."

"In my soul, humanity is a single part, a big gentle bird whose song I use to sing every early morning in the silence of the Universe."

"A light broke in upon my brain, - / It was the carol of a bird; / It ceased, and then it came again, / The sweetest song ear ever heard."

"A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song."

"Everyone wants to understand painting. Why is there no attempt to understand the song of the birds?"
