„ Everything is flowing---going somewhere, animals and so-called lifeless rocks as well as water. Thus the snow flows fast or slow in grand beauty-making glaciers and avalanches; the air in majestic floods carrying minerals, plant leaves, seeds, spores, with streams of music and fragrance; water streams carrying rocks...while the stars go streaming through space pulsed on and on forever like blood...in Natures warm heart. “
John Muir, Overland Monthly, August, 1873
