    The lion cares less about being king of the beasts than about finding his dinner.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    It is not their bones or hide or tallow that I love most. It is the living spirit of the tree, not its spirit of turpentine, with which I sympathize, and which heals my cuts. It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
