“The rain falling. Summer rain on the earth. Night rain. The darkness and warmth and flood of passion. Tonight the earth is loved-loved and possessed. Her lover's arms are round her: and she is silent.”
― James Joyce, Poems and Exiles

“When we are still,
all settles into place.
We take time to see the beauty.
We take time to see the heart.
And we naturally gravitate
to others
that resonate that inner calm.
When we are still.”
― Tom Althouse, The Frowny Face Cow

“Speaking in Creation's tongues, hearing Creation's voices, the boundary of our soul expands. Earth has many voices. Those who understand that Earth is a living being know this because they have translated themselves to the humble grasses and old trees. They know that Earth is a community that is constantly talking to itself; a communicating universe. And whether we know it or not, we are participating in the web of this community.”
― Joan Halifax
