This Song Of The Waters Is Audible To Every Ear, But There Is Other Music In These Hills, By No Means Audible To All.

This song of the waters is audible to every ear, but there is other music
in these hills, by no means audible to all.... On a still night, when the
campfire is low and the Pleiades have climbed over rimrocks, sit quietly
and listen ... and think hard of everything you have seen and tried to
understand. Then you may hear it - a vast pulsing harmony - its score
inscribed on a thousand hills, its notes the lives and deaths of plants and
animals, its rhythms spanning the seconds and the centuries.
-- Aldo Leopold
