STILL TIME TO CHILL IN THE FOREST
“The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.”
-- John Muir
“I'm always astonished by a forest. It makes me realise that the fantasy of nature is much larger than my own fantasy.”
-- Gunter Grass
“It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanates from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.”
“A grove of giant redwoods or sequoias should be kept just as we keep a great or beautiful cathedral.”
“A forest bird never wants a cage.”
-- Henrik Ibsen
“In the woods we return to reason and faith.”
“I grew up in a forest. It's like a room. It's protected. Like a cathedral... it is a place between heaven and earth.”
“We are aware only of the empty space in the forest, which only yesterday was filled with trees.”
-- Anna Freud
“Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.”
“Going to the woods is going home.”
