John Burroughs quote: "If I were to name the three most precious resources of life, I..."
If I were to name the three most precious resources of life, I should say books, friends, and nature.... John Burroughs
...to find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter...to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest, or a wild flower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life. John Burroughs
The lesson which life constantly repeats is to 'look under your feet.' You are always nearer to the divine and the true sources of your power than you think. The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are. Do not despise your own place and hour. Every place is under the stars. Every place is the center of the world. John Burroughs
The lesson which life repeats and constantly enforces is 'look under foot.' You are always nearer the divine and the true sources of your power than you think. John Burroughs
John Burroughs quote: "Life is a struggle, but not a warfare."
Life is a struggle, but not a warfare. John Burroughs
