Conservation Is An Act Of Democracy

 Conservation is an act of democracy, the greatest good
for the greatest numbers for the longest time.
Surely the protection of these natural treasures is
fundamental to 'homeland security'.
~ Terry Tempest Williams

All Good Things Come By Grace And Art

All good things --- trout as well as eternal salvation ---

come by grace and grace comes by art

and art does not come easy.

Making Good Art With Dash And Abandonment

… he wrote that his daily stint of painting

brought everything into balance and harmony.

…Harlan thought that a painting, to be good,

must be done with dash and abandonment,

even one which has meticulous detail.

If one niggles over it, the result is dull and lifeless.

…I have so little skill and handle my tools and materials

in a fumbling way, yet in painting, even in playing the violin,

I sometimes strike deep, and the technique seems as honest and handmade.

~ Wendell Berry, from Harlan Hubbard, Life and Work (from Heron Dance)

This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in
unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.
