"I believe in a benevolent God not because He created the Grand Canyon or Michelangelo, but because He gave us snacks." ~ Paul Rudnick

 “The delicious soft, spring-suggesting air,—how it fills my veins with life! Life becomes again credible to me. A certain dormant life awakes in me, and I begin to love nature again.”

― Henry David Thoreau, The Journal, 1837-1861
