First

No genuine book has a first page. Like the rustling of a forest, it is begotten God knows where, and it grows and it rolls, arousing the dense wilds of the forest until suddenly, in the very darkest, most stunned and panicked moment, it rolls to its end and begins to speak with all the treetops at once.

Boris Pasternak

Living

The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book... but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit—not a fossil earth, but a living earth.

Henry David Thoreau

Short

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read and all the friends I want to see.
