A great Embran, John Muir. Good clear eyes and a fine beard, in my opinion.
Child of his times, though. If you visit his museum in Dunbar, you will find that, when he came back to his native heath, he kept referring to himself as a proud American of ‘English’ origin.
Would you care to guess how well that goes down these days on the Jock side of the current British divide?
Autre temps, autre moeurs, a mon avis.
Crikey, that is some beard he has there, you don’t see many like that these days.
Goodnight Mr Zen, sleep cool, if you can.
bet the beard was red
Zen – I like forests. Keep the quotes coming.

I’m also keen on forests; there should be more of ’em.
JM, “he kept referring to himself as a proud American of ‘English’ origin”. Those were the days! When it was PC to ignore the border and accept the reflected glory of Empire. Long before the independence fad and the desire to be different.
Haw and whee, zenrules!
