“I have fled my country and gone to the heather.”

“And the moors were always there and never without their promise.”

“Water, that strong white stuff, can here be seen at its origins. It wells from the rock, and flows away. For unnumbered years it has welled from the rock and flowed away. It does nothing, absolutely nothing, but be itself.”

Nan Shepherd
