Wildness. We’re running out of it, even up in Alaska. People need to be reminded that the world is unsafe and unpredictable, and at a moment’s notice, they could lose everything, like that. I do it to remind them that chaos is always out there, lurking beyond the horizon. That, plus, sometimes you have to do something bad, just to know you’re alive.

Quote, saying and phrase by: Socrates
Wisdom and spirit of the Universe Thou soul is the eternity of thought That giv’st to forms and images a breath And everlasting motion Not in vain By day or star-light thus from by first dawn Of childhood didst thou intertwine for me The passions that build up our human soul, Not with the mean and vulgar works of man, But with high objects, with enduring things, With life and nature, purifying thus The elements of feeling and of thought, And sanctifying, by such discipline Both pain and fear, until we recognize A grandeur in the beatings of the heart.
Quote, saying and phrase by: William Wordsworth
Winter lies too long in country towns hangs on until it is stale and shabby, old and sullen.
Quote, saying and phrase by: Willa Cather
