“is that we're this little, quiet pond, undisturbed. Sort of like a museum piece. Except we don't want to be a museum piece. Listening to the radio is not a normal thing. We have to get millions of people to do something that is not normal. So we have to continue to work to deserve the attention of the millions of people who listen.”
Garrison Keillor
“Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed.”
Walt Whitman
“The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulus.”
Billy Graham
“It's a natural, undisturbed trail, ... People can enjoy the different kinds of trees, plant and animal life, the stream and the bog it runs by.”
David Goldman
“There are a sort of men whose visagesDo cream and mantle like a standing pond.”
William Shakespeare
“Many drops make a bucket, many buckets make a pond, many ponds make a lake, and many lakes make an ocean.”
Percy Ross
“Four ducks on a pond, / A grass-bank beyond, / A blue sky of spring, / White clouds on the wing: / What a little thing / To remember for years - / To remember with tears!”
William Allingham
