More From John Muir

You can take lessons to become almost anything: flying lessons, piano lessons, skydiving lessons, acting lessons, race car driving lessons, singing lessons. but there's no class for comedy. you have to be born with it. god has to give you this gift.
Race Class Piano
The rich people are apparently leaving america. they're giving up their citizenship. these great lovers of america who made their money in this country-when you ask them to pay their fair share of taxes they run abroad. we have 19-year old kids who lost their lives in iraq and afghanistan defending this country. they went abroad. not to escape taxes. they're working class kids who died in wars and now billionaires want to run abroad to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. what patriotism! what love of country!
Running Country Giving Up
You're a rotten driver,' i protested. 'either you ought to be more careful or you oughtn't to drive at all.' 'i am careful.' 'no, you're not.' 'well, other people are,' she said lightly. 'what's that got to do with it?' 'they'll keep out of my way,' she insisted. 'it takes two to make an accident.' 'suppose you met somebody just as careless as yourself.' 'i hope i never will,' she answered. 'i hate careless people. that's why i like you.' her grey, sun-strained eyes stared straight ahead, but she had deliberately shifted our relations, and for a moment i thought i loved her.
I Like You Hate Eye
Life is challenging. i wish i could tell you that you’ll always be on top of the mountain, but the reality is that there are days when nothing will go right, when not only will you not be on top, you may not even be able to figure out which way is up. do yourself a favor, and don’t make it any harder than it has to be. in those moments, be careful how you speak to yourself; be careful how you think of yourself; be careful how you conduct yourself; be careful how you develop yourself.
Reality Thinking Challenges
To be a woman condemned to a wretched and disgraceful punishment is no impediment to beauty, but it is an insurmountable obstacle to power. like all persons of real genius, her ladyship well knew what accorded with her nature and her means. poverty disgusted her -subjection deprived her of two-thirds of her greatness. her ladyship was only a queen amongst queens: the enjoyment of satisfied pride was essential to her sway. to command beings of an inferior nature, was, to her, rather a humiliation than a pleasure.
Queens Real Mean
The sea can bind us to her many moods, whispering to us by the subtle token of a shadow or a gleam upon the waves, and hinting in these ways of her mournfulness or rejoicing. always she is remembering old things, and these memories, though we may not grasp them, are imparted to us, so that we share her gaiety or remorse.

Memories of ice and trent surfaced, and i wrapped my arms around my middle. i had saved him, and he had saved me. what was wrong with us?

Conservatism makes no poetry, breathes no prayer, has no invention; it is all memory. reform has no gratitude, no prudence, no husbandry.
Gratitude Prayer Memories
To his sister-in-law: what a contrast between us! you live a warm and glowing life, surrounded by loved ones whom you care for and who care for you; you are anchored in contentment. i drift about without rudder or compass, a wreck on the sea of life; i have no memories to cheer me, no pleasant illusions of the future to comfort me, or about me to satisfy my vanity. i have no family to furnish the only kind of survival that concerns us, no friends for the wholesome development of my affections, or enemies for my malice.
Sister Cheer Memories
We studied our angels for a few moments more, looking at where we had lain side by side in that sweet, quiet moment. i wished what i’d said was true, that we had truly left our mark on the mountain. but i knew that after the next snowfall, our angels would disappear into the whiteness and be nothing more than a memory.
