Quotation of the Day for February 16, 2012"We must go out and re-ally ourselves to Nature every day. We must make root, send out some little fibre at least, even every winter day. I am sensible that I am imbibing health when I open my mouth to the wind. Staying in the house breeds a sort of insanity always. Every house is in this sense, a sort of hospital. A night and a forenoon is as much confinement to those wards as I can stand. I am aware that I recover some sanity, which I had lost, almost the instant that I come abroad." - Henry David Thoreau, in his journal, Dec. 29, 1856. Submitted by: Kathleen Magone Jan. 25, 2012  |
