“When one is alone at night in the depths of these woods, the stillness is at once awful and sublime. Every leaf seems to speak.”
― John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir

“The last captain called to sea again
Sails intrepid forward
The waves they rock
But he cares not
He need only follow the stars
Looking down at that compass
Would just lead him astray
His great old vessel
Done in by monsters, maelstroms,
Tidal waves
Foundering toward lost Atlantis
But by ancient stars
Burning oh so bright
And sails high and strong
He’ll catch the gale
That will take him there
Out where he belongs
Not a distant shore
But heaven’s door
One with the sublime
Another bright light
In the starry night
Shining with
True greatness”
