The world, harmoniously confused,
Where order in variety we see,
And where, tho’ all things differ,
All agree.

Alexander Pope (1688 – 1744)

  1. I like the photo. I like the words. All agree?

    • CherryPie says:

      Totally agree?

      Mmm… I think it might snow tomorrow ;-)

      • The interpretation I attach to the words makes them astonishingly prescient of what we have uncovered and continue to uncover about the inner mechanisms of Nature. I really like them very much, and have not read them before, so far as I recall. Thanks. (I won’t spoil the harmony by pondering whether my interpretation may be different from what he meant).

          My comment about it will snow tomorrow is something I always say when two people totally agree on something. Such an occurance is rare and where I live snow has been rare for many years.

          We both liked the words and you liked the photo I used which I tried to depict the words. So for a change we agree on everything.

          It is such a rare occurance, it is sure to snow tommorrow ;-)

    WOW! Magnificent photo….

      Thank You :-)

      On a sunny outing yesterday I remembered your words about my nature photographs. My nature photos have been few and far between these days because rain stops play…

      So I took the opportunity to capture the sunny moment.

    You find the best quotes, Cherry. I’ll have to remember this one!

  5. I disagree with this agreement, so does it mean “yes, I agree”?!
