HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE

 


"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous."

~Aristotle~








I have used this quote a few times before but it is one of my favorites, and whenever I see something in nature that I find absolutely awesome, it’s definitely my go-to. The new plant is called Early Meadow Rue.

Aristotle (384-322 BC) was an ancient Greek philosopher and polymath. As the founder of the Peripatetic school of philosophy in the Lyceum in Athens, he began the wider Aristotelian tradition that followed, which set the groundwork for the development of modern science. Little is known about Aristotle's life. He was born in the city of Stagira in northern Greece during the Classical period. His father, Nicomachus, died when Aristotle was a child, and he was brought up by a guardian. At 17 or 18, he joined Plato's Academy in Athens and remained there until the age of 37 (c. 347 BC). Shortly after Plato died, Aristotle left Athens and, at the request of Philip II of Macedon, tutored Philip’s son Alexander the Great beginning in 343 BC. He established a library in the Lyceum, which helped him to produce many of his hundreds of books on papyrus scrolls.

I found all this information on Aristotle at this link.
