"They are naturalists as people, unceremonious and unpretentious, and they love the naturalness of the universe.... They are at peace with nature, God's world, if you will, though they are capable of functioning in a man-made world. They are also capable of appreciating what has become stale for others. They never tire of a sunset or a trip in the woods. A bird in flight is a magnificent sight over and over again...." — Wayne Dyer
