The feathery leaves of yarrow are thick with silver rime and dry thistle heads rise like goblets plated with silver catching the sun.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together. For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “It is easier to accept the message of the stars than the message of the salt desert. The stars speak of man’s insignificance in the long eternity of time; the desert speaks of his insignificance right now.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “To the lost man, to the pioneer penetrating a new country, to the naturalist who wishes to see the wild land at its wildest, the advice is always the same – follow a river. The river is the original forest highway. It is nature’s own Wilderness Road.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “Any fine morning, a power saw can fell a tree that took a thousand years to grow.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “Those who wish to pet and baby wild animals ‘love’ them. But those who respect their natures and wish to let them live normal lives, love them more.”

Edwin Way Teale Quote: “Eliminate the needless wants of life, and the labors of life reduce themselves.”
Edwin Way Teale Quote: “As the pressure of population increasingly regiments us and crowds us closer together, an association with the wild, winged freedom of the birds will fill an ever growing need in our lives.”
