Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.
“The studio was filled with the rich odour of roses, and when the light summer wind stirred amidst the trees of the garden, there came through the open door the heavy scent of the lilac, or the more delicate perfume of the pink-flowering thorn.”
The stars awaken a certain reverence, because though always present, they are inaccessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence.
Judge of your natural character by what you do in your dreams.
He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time.
