The pine, placed nearly always among scenes disordered and desolate, brings into them all possible elements of order and precision. Lowland trees may lean to this side and that, though it is but a meadow breeze that bends them, or a bank of cowslips from which their trunks lean aslope. But let storm and avalanche do their worst, and let the pine find only a ledge of vertical...
引言： 沉默本身也是一种思想和心境的流露，是灵魂的另一种形式的回声。 Indeed, for a living being there is no such thing as true silence, for silence itself is a revelation of the mind and the heart, an echo of the soul of a different form.

There was a small boy living on a farm, he needed to get up before sunrise every morning to start his chores and out again later to do the evening ones. During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence. So in the distance he could see the house with golden windows. He thought, how great it would be to live there!

Love I love you not because of who you are,but because of who I am when I am with you. No man or woman is worth your tears,and the one who is ,won’t make you cry. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can’t have them. Never frown,even when you are sad,because you never know who is falling in love with your smile. To the worl...
Over the rainbow ——E. Y. Harburg Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high There’s a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby Somewhere over the rainbow Skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true Someday I’ll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops A way above the chimney tops That...
Trees I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree; A tree whose hungry mouth is prest Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast; A tree that looks at God all day, And lifts her leafy arms to pray; A tree that may in Summer wear A nest of robins in her hair; Upon whose bosom snow has lain, Who intimately lives with rain. Poems are made by fools like me, But o...

编者按： 孤独，是忧愁的伴侣，也是精神活动的密友。 ——纪伯伦【黎】 Solitude I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone.
