Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary.
Kahil Gibran

If a child is to keep his inborn sense of wonder, it nees the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscover with it the joy, sentiment and mystery of the world we live in.
Rachel Carson

We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
Jawaharlal Nehru

I really like all three quotes, but especially the second one.

Reminds me when our grandson was about 4yo, and he was into bugs. Whenever we went somewhere, he was looking for bugs.
Walking down the sidewalk, he'd spot an ant crawling out of a crack , crouch down and follow it all the way, until it was gone, and tell me all about it. We stopped for a lot of ants. Sometimes it would takes us a very long time to take a short walk, but it was worth it.
