More quotes by John Muir
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
The world, we are told, was made especially for man — a presumption not supported by all the facts.
No portion of the world is so barren as not to yield a rich and precious harvest of divine truth.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
