Respect Reigns

1. The goal of life is living in agreement with Nature
Zeno (335 BC - 264 BC)
from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers

(with the hope that one's rain soaked boots miraculously dry overnight)


2. Trees and stones in the woods will teach you that which you can never learn from books or masters.
Saint Bernard (1090 - 1153)
from Epistle

(a canonized guy, not the breed of dog)
