J.R.R. Tolkien
“Ithilien, the garden of Gondor now desolate kept still a dishevelled dryad loveliness.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

Aldo Leopold
“November is, for many reasons, the month for the axe. It is warm enough to grind an axe without freezing, but cold enough to fell a tree in comfort.”
Aldo Leopold, A Sand County Almanac: And Sketches Here and There

“So especially ask yourself: what is my concern for the glory of God in my life? How much am I led by concern for my own comfort and feeling of well-being? Do I witness out of enjoyment of God? Do I love people—not just on the mission field, but people? Am I willing to imitate the Good Shepherd and die for them? Do I really know the power of the Holy Spirit as I daringly witness? Do I really confront the lost with heaven and hell? Am I repenting regularly?”
C. John Miller, The Heart of a Servant Leader: Letters from Jack Miller

Patrick O'Brian
“Smell is of all senses by far the most evocative: perhaps because we have no vocabulary for it – nothing but a few poverty-stricken approximations to describe the whole vast complexity of odour – and therefore the scent, unnamed and unnamable, remains pure of association; it cannot be called upon again and again, and blunted, by the use of a word; and so it strikes afresh every time, bringing with it all the circumstances of its first perception.”
Patrick O'Brian, Post Captain

Patrick O'Brian
“I have never yet known a man admit that he was either rich or asleep: perhaps the poor man and the wakeful man have some great moral advantage.”
Patrick O'Brian, Master and Commander
