Grass

I am currently reading Wheatgrass, Nature Finest Medicine by Steve Meyerowitz.

Here are a couple quotes regarding grass:

I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.
     -Walt Whitman

When I touch grass, I tough infinity. It existed long before there were human beings on the earth, and it will continue to exist for millions of years to come. Through the grass, I talk to the Infinite, which is only a silent force. This is not a physical contact. It is not the earthquake, wind, or fire. It is the invisible world of nature of which I, too, am a part.
     -George Washington Carver

Emerson Quote

Nature is painting for us, day after day, pictures of infinite beauty.   -by Ralph Waldo Emerson

John Muir Quote

So true:

In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.  – John Muir
