Life Quotes
Humans are remarkable: the first species in almost four billion years of life on earth that dominates the biosphere.

Mary Oliver
I have often thought the best way to define a man's character would be to seek out the particular mental or moral attitude in which, when it comes upon him, he felt himself most deeply and intensely active and alive.
