St. Bernard of Clairvaux saw God everywhere in creation, and once said to a monk: “Believe me, on my own experience, you will find more in the woods than in books; the forrests and rocks will teach you what you cannot learn of the greatest masters.” (Quoted by Mary E. Mannix in her work “Illustrated Lives of Patron Saints for Boys”, pub. 1905, Benzinger Brothers, Inc., Nihil Obstat, Imprimatur.)
