John Burroughs

"One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: ‘To rise above little things’."

"I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see."

"The secret of happiness is something to do"

"Leap and the net will appear"

"To learn something new, take the path that you took yesterday."

"I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see."
