Rachel Carson
“To get the feeling of what it is like to be a creature of the sea requires the active exercise of the imagination and the temporary abandonment of many human concepts and human yardsticks. For example, time measured by the clock or the calendar means nothing if you are a shore bird or a fish, but the succession of light and darkness and the ebb and the flow of the tides mean the difference between the time to eat and the time to fast, between the time an enemy can find you easily and the time you are relatively safe. We cannot get the full flavor of marine life—cannot project ourselves vicariously into it—unless we make these adjustments in our thinking.”
Rachel Carson, Under the Sea-Wind

Carolyn Cutler Hughes
“When we see our world is about to unwind,God sees an image of His perfect design.”
Carolyn Cutler Hughes, Through God's Eye

Rick Mystrom
“What is Insulin?
Insulin is a hormone that allows the glucose (also called blood sugar) in your blood to get out of your bloodstream and into your cells for energy for whatever your current activity or inactivity is. If you have more glucose in your bloodstream than your current energy need, the excess is stored in your liver (called glycogen in its storage form). If your liver is full and you still have excess glucose in your bloodstream, the rest is stored as body fat around your butt, thighs, belly—and generally every place you don’t want it to be. ”

“It’s incredible to reflect on how much knowledge and growth power is contained in seeds.”
Charles Dowding

Mary Ann Shaffer
“I have no passion for groves and valleys. The rooms where I was born, the furniture which has been before my eyes all my life, a bookcase which has followed me about like a faithful dog wherever I have moved – old chairs, old streets, squares where I have sunned myself, my old school – have I not enough, without your Mountains? I do not envy you. I should pity you, did I not know, that the Mind will make friends of any thing.’ A mind that can ‘make friends of any thing’ – I thought of that often during the war.”
Mary Ann Shaffer, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
