Have you not seen in the woods on a late autumn morning a poor fungus or mushroom-a plant without any solidity, nay, that seemed nothing but a soft mush or jelly-by its constant total and inconceivably gentle pushing, manage to break its way up through the frosty ground, and actually to lift a hard crust on its head? It is the symbol of the power of kindness. Emerson. | Among the Mushrooms (Esprios Classics) by Ellen M Dallas, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
