I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority.
E. B. White
“Belgarath: 'What now?'
Necessity: 'Pick up one foot and put it in front of the other. I'll let you decide which foot. Don't try to pick them both up at the same tome though.'
Belgarath: 'Very funny.'
(David and Leigh Eddings)

this has always been one of my favorites:
I never saw a wild thing
sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
without ever having felt sorry for itself.
