"The snow itself is lonely or, if you prefer, self-sufficient. There is no other time when the whole world seems composed of one thing and one thing only"

About this Quote

In this quote, Joseph Wood Krutch is describing the special and singular nature of snow. He recommends that snow is either lonely or self-dependent, suggesting that it can either stimulate sensations of seclusion or stand on its own without requiring anything else. Krutch goes on to explain that when snow falls, it changes the entire world into one singular thing. It covers whatever in a blanket of white, producing a sense of unity and simplicity. This can be viewed as a metaphor for the power of nature to bring individuals together and strip away diversions, allowing us to focus on the appeal of one thing at a time.
