The wonder is that we can see these trees and not wonder more. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an inlet to the same and to all of the same. He that is once admitted to the right of reason is made a freeman of the whole estate. What Plato has thought, he may think; what a saint has felt, he may feel; what at any time has befallen any man, he can understand. Who hath access to this universal mind is a party to all that is or can be done, for this is the only and sovereign agent.

We live amid surfaces, and the true art of life is to skate well on them.

Alcohol, hashish, prussic acid, strychnine are weak dilutions. The surest poison is time.
