Something I thought all the readers and explorer's might enjoy:

"If you lose the power of wonder, you grow old, no matter how old you are. If you have the power of wonder, you are forever young- the whole world is pristine and new and exciting."
- In The Wilderness World of Sigurd F. Olson, Twin Cities Public Television, 1980

"If felt good to feel the north wind, to face it and glory in it. There was no bite to it, merely a good fierce joy in the sting of it." - Journal, December 12, 1934 Sigurd F. Olson

"When one finally arrives at the point where shcedules are forgotten, and becomes immersed in ancient rhythms, one beings to live." -Reflections of the North Country, 29

"In the wilderness there is never this sense of having to move, never the feeling of boredom if nothing dramatic happens. Time moves slowly, as it should, for it is a part of beauty that cannot be hurried if it is to be understood. Without this easy flowing, life can become empty and hectic."-Reflections from the North Country, 29

Hope you all enjoy these little quotes and can pull something from them as I did.
Cheers,
Sam
