It’s Tuesday once again in our part of the world. Time for Frizztext’s A-Z Photo Story Challenge. This week’s letter is P and so I share photographs from one of our favorite Parks here in Singapore.
West Coast Park
“For I have learned to look on nature, not as in the hour of thoughtless youth, but hearing oftentimes the still, sad music of humanity.”
― William Wordsworth
“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
“…and then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough?”
― Vincent van Gogh
“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more”
― George Gordon Byron
“In a forest of a hundred thousand trees, no two leaves are alike. And no two journeys along the same path are alike.”
― Paulo Coelho, Aleph
“If we surrendered to earth’s intelligence we could rise up rooted, like trees. ”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Rainer Maria Rilke’s the Book of Hours: A New Translation with Commentary
“She should be on a hill somewhere, under a fruit tree, with the sun and clouds above her and the rain to wash her clean.”
― George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
