Read through the most famous quotes by topic #wilder




The old school of thought would have you believe that you'd be a fool to take on nature without arming yourself with every conceivable measure of safety and comfort under the sun. But that isn't what being in nature is all about. Rather, it's about feeling free, unbounded, shedding the distractions and barriers of our civilization—not bringing them with us.

Maybe freedom really is nothing left to lose. You had it once in childhood, when it was okay to climb a tree, to paint a crazy picture and wipe out on your bike, to get hurt. The spirit of risk gradually takes its leave. It follows the wild cries of joy and pain down the wind, through the hedgerow, growing ever fainter. What was that sound? A dog barking far off? That was our life calling to us, the one that was vigorous and undefended and curious.


Peter Heller

But this is the first and great commandment nonetheless. Even in the wilderness - especially in the wilderness - you shall love him.


Frederick Buechner

Every well-written book is a light for me. When you write, you use other writers and their books as guides in the wilderness.
