A Quote by Andrew Lang, full of imagery of 'living by Nature'. The pictures of the post convey the.thread of thoughts of the author - a stepping aside to a life of slow pace and calm, from the stressors of a world of material possessions and activities.
The writer captures our imagination and takes us along, to live in a house by the beach of a bay, with the "surly" waves and seaweed. He is willing to make the trade-off "leave all the hurry ..." "for a house full of books and a garden of flowers"
