Edward Abbey
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
― Edward Abbey

Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them.
“Never trust anyone who has not brought a book with them.”
― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can't Avoid

Oscar Wilde
“It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.”
― Oscar Wilde

Annie Dillard
“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.”
― Annie Dillard, The Writing Life: The Classic Essay Collection on the Creative Process

Edward Abbey
“One final paragraph of advice: do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast....a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it’s still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the precious stillness, the lovely, mysterious, and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive, and I promise you this much; I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound men and women with their hearts in a safe deposit box, and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this; You will outlive the bastards.”
― Edward Abbey
