Adam at Eniat River, central Washington State |
The lakes are something which you are unprepared for; they lie up so high, exposed to the light, and the forest is diminished to a fine fringe on their edges, with here and there a blue mountain, like amethyst jewels set around some jewel of the first water--so anterior, so superior, to all the changes that are to take place on their shores, even now civil and refined, and fair as they can ever be.
~Henry David Thoreau
The true peace of God begins at any spot a thousand miles from the nearest land.
~Joseph Conrad
Pure water is the first and foremost medicine.
~Slovakian proverb
What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn't have any doubt--it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn't want to go anywhere else.
