I love this author.

What saves a man is to take a step. Then another step. It is always the same step, but you have to take it.

Grass

Posted by Christine on December 16, 2009

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
