Wilderness Wisdom Quotes

“When you’re in the wild, there’s nothing to hide behind. No bars or credit cards or movie theatres or cell phones or credentials or security. You’re just alone with yourself. You look around and lose yourself in the mountains, rivers, forests or tundra, but you can see nothing except for the chaos in your own mind. It is fucking terrifying and peaceful at the same time.”
― Shannon M Mullen, See What Flowers

“Out in the wilderness, nature is your translator.”
― Bhuwan Thapaliya

“You can't fight nature and expect to win—you can't defeat the infinite.”
― Juan Pablo Quiñonez, Thrive: Long-Term Wilderness Survival Guide; Skills, Tips, and Gear for Living on the Land
