"It is only from the light which streams constantly from heaven that a tree can derive the energy to strike its roots deep into the soil. The tree is in fact rooted in the sky."
—Simone Well
Every farm woodland, in addition to yielding lumber, fuel and posts, should provide its owner a liberal education. This crop of wisdom never fails, but it is not always harvested.
—Aldo Leopold, in A Sand County Almanac
Habitat is not only removed quietly from a generation of man, but from multiple generations of wildlife, who unknowingly adapt to less, and become distorted by a change they never even feel.
—Dick E. Bird
Experimenting. . .
I hung the moon
on various
branches of the pine.
—Hokushi
I look upon the shadowed light,
that falls about the sill.
And see the morning sneaking in,
to clutch the day’s events.
Quiet sounds of birds splash the sunrise,
and baptize the new day.
I cannot hope for life to offer
a more wonderful gift than this.
—Dick E. Bird
Although birds coexist with us on this eroded planet, they live independently of us with a self-sufficiency that is almost a rebuke. In the world of birds a symposium on the purpose of life would be inconceivable. They do not need it. We are not that self-reliant. We are the ones who have lost our way. —Brooks Atkinson
Man must understand his universe in order to understand his destiny. —Neil Armstrong
