More From John Muir

But no temple made with hands can compare with yosemite. every rock in its walls seems to glow with life...as if into this one mountain mansion nature had gathered her choicest treasures.
Wall Rocks Hands
You know what i am going to say. i love you. what other men may mean when they use that expression, i cannot tell. what i mean is that i am under the influence of some tremendous attraction which i have resisted in vain, and which overmasters me. you could draw me to fire, you could draw me to water, you could draw me to the gallows, you could draw me to any death, you could draw me to anything i have most avoided, you could draw me to any exposure and disgrace. this and the confusion of my thoughts, so that i am fit for nothing, is what i mean by your being the ruin of me.
Love Mean Men
So extraordinary is nature with her choicest treasures, spending plant beauty as she spends sunshine, pouring it forth into land and sea, garden and desert. and so the beauty of lilies falls on angels and men, bears and squirrels, wolves and sheep, birds and bees.

I know married catholics in a second union who go to church, who go to church once or twice a year and say i want communion, as if joining in communion were an award. it's a work towards integration, all doors are open, but we cannot say, 'from here on they can have communion.'

Pain and pleasure, good and evil, come to us from unexpected sources. it is not there where we have gathered up our brightest hopes, that the dawn of happiness breaks. it is not there where we have glanced our eye with affright, that we find the deadliest gloom. what should this teach us? to bow to the great and only source of light, and live humbly and with confiding resignation.
Pain Eye Light
O my child, bethink you that just as the bee, having gathered heaven's dew and earth's sweetest juices from amid the flowers, carries it to her hive; so the priest, having taken the saviour, god's own son, who came down from heaven, the son of mary, who sprang up as earth's choicest flower, from the altar, feeds you with that bread of sweetness and of all delight.

Well, you have children so you know: little children little troubles, big children, big troubles - it's a saying in yiddish. maybe the chinese said it too.
