"Books are those faithful mirrors that reflect to our mind the minds of sages and heroes." ••Edward Gibbon

 “The world is exploding in emerald, sage, and lusty chartreuse - neon green with so much yellow in it. It is an explosive green that, if one could watch it moment by moment throughout the day, would grow in every dimension.”

― Amy Seidl, Early Spring: An Ecologist and Her Children Wake to a Warming World
