"This is the assembly of life that took a billion years to evolve. It has eaten the storms -- folded them into its genes -- and created the world that created us. It holds the world steady. " -- Edward O. Wilson

"There are other languages being spoken by wind, water, and wings. There are other lives to consider: avocets, stilts, and stones. Peace is the perspective found in patterns. When I see ring-billed gulls picking on the flesh of decaying carp, I am less afraid of death. We are no more and no less than the life that surrounds us. My fears surface in my isolation. My serenity surfaces in my solitude." - Terry Tempest Wiliams, Refuge. Female anhinga, Ft. Myers, FL
