Nature

The sky is the daily bread of the eyes. -Ralph Waldo Emerson



How like a queen comes forth the lonely Moon From the slow opening curtains of the clouds Walking in beauty to her midnight throne!- George Croly

The radiance in some places is so great as to be fairly dazzling . . . every crystal, every flower a window opening into heaven, a mirror reflecting the Creator.- John Muir


If you wish to know the divine, feel the wind on your face and the warm sun on your hand.
- Eido Tai Shimano Roshi
God's miracles are to be found in nature itself; the wind and waves, the wood that becomes a tree - all of these are explained biologically, but behind them is the hand of God.
- Ronald Reagan
To the dull mind all nature is leaden. To the illumined mind the whole world burns and sparkles with light.- Ralph Waldo Emerson

I love the quote from Emerson. Here's one from me:

"The sky is God's daily canvas."

Not as good but it reflects my sentiments...I love clouds and the sky and how beautiful and different it is every day.
