:QUOTES: on EARTH according to Carson, Gibran, Keats & Lubbock

I endeavored to find three quotes in honor of of our lovely planet as Earth Day is Friday, April 22nd and found so many that I loved that I couldn't seem to limit myself to my usual three.

So, here are my favorite four.

RACHEL CARSON:

"Those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life."

KAHLIL GIBRAN:
"Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair."

JOHN KEATS:
"The poetry of the earth is never dead."

JOHN LUBBOCK:
"Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books."
