3. “The book of nature has no beginning,
as it has no end. Open this book where
you will, and at any period of your life,
and if you have the desire to acquire
knowledge you will find it of intense
interest, and no matter how long or
how intently you study the pages, your
interest will not flag, for in nature there
is no finality.”
Jim Corbett
