"There are few joys greater than the intellectual joy of suddenly seeing the co-relation of things which were formerly detached"

Halford MacKinder 'The Development of Geographical Teaching through Nature Study' (Geographical Teacher, Vol 2.)

#665: Thought for the Day

“We should pay more attention to how we're treating our mountains, how we’re treating our world, how we’re just treating everything.

We’re just mistreating Mother Nature. That's, like, being ugly to your mama, you know?”

Dolly Parton (RIP)

#31: Thought for the Day

When I come across a useful quote in my reading, I shall add them occasionally in posts called 'Thought for the Day'. 

Here's the first, which I obtained from the web page of a film called 'A Year in a Field'.

"As one comes closer the view grows wider and wider, until finally looking through the same narrow window one is looking at the universe.”

George Wald, Biologist
