Each blade of grass has its spot on earth whence it draws its life, its strength; and so is man rooted to the land from which he draws his faith together with his life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.
A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit.
The fulness of the godhead dwelt in every blade of grass.
If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things of nature have a message that you understand, rejoice, for your soul is alive.
A beginner must look on himself as one setting out to make a garden for his Lord's pleasure, on most unfruitful soil which abounds in weeds. His Majesty roots up the weeds and will put in good plants instead. Let us reckon that this is already done when the soul decides to practice prayer and has begun to do so.
Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.
Every true man, sir, who is a little above the level of the beasts and plants does not live for the sake of living, without knowing how to live; but he lives so as to give a meaning and a value of his own to life.
God knows Himself and every created thing perfectly. Not a blade of grass or the tiniest insect escapes His eye.
The moment one gives close attention to any thing, even a blade of grass it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.
There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make us rejoice.
