Each generation doubtless feels called upon to reform the world. Mine knows that it will not reform it, but its task is perhaps even greater. It consists in preventing the world from destroying itself.

Home is behind, the world ahead, And there are many paths to tread Through shadows to the edge of night, Until the stars are all alight. Then world behind and home ahead, We'll wander back and home to bed. Mist and twilight, cloud and shade, Away shall fade! Away shall fade!

The nude does not simply represent the body, but relates it, by analogy, to all structures that have become part of our imaginative experience.

When you draw a nude,... make certain that all the parts hang together.

My concern has always been to paint nudes as if they were some splendid fruit.

"The more you participate in naturist activities, the greater life satisfaction - a relationship that is mediated by a more positive body image, and higher self-esteem."

The world has changed. I see it in the water. I feel it in the Earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost, For none now live who remember it.

Sweet, sane, still nakedness Nature! Ah, if poor, sick, prurient humanity in cities might really know you once more! Is not nakedness then indecent? No, not inherently. It is your thought, your sophistication, your fear, your respectability, that is indecent.

Nudism is an aesthetic of my daily existence, not a fashion statement.

We alternately think of nudity as a perversion and a state of innocence. Why is our response so contradictory and why is nudity treated so differently in different contexts?

The media has convinced women they need to be look a certain way to be considered "beautiful" or "successful."
Being a nudist has empowered me to eschew what they considered "normal."
I love the skin I am in and I have made peace with my body.

If tomorrow, women woke up and decided they really liked their bodies, just think how many industries would go out of business

I wish we were all naked all the time, ... I have always believed it is what's underneath that counts. If we were all forced to be naked, perhaps we would start to see that a little bit more
