“There is nothing in the world more beautiful than the forest clothed to its very hollows in snow. It is the still ecstasy of nature, wherein every spray, every blade of grass, every spire of reed, every intricacy of twig, is clad with radiance.”
William Sharp
“The green world was . . . unpredictable and chaotic. It was an unmediated place literally represented by the forest, the wilderness, where you learned things you don't necessarily want to know about yourself.”
Dar Williams
“Forests shouldn't exist. The trees in the middle of the forest don't get enough light or nutrients to survive.”
Sherri Coale
“Spirit Lake is a complex world, like an underwater forest, ... It teems with life. It's fascinating. It's very complex.”
Charlie Crisafulli
“All conversion of natural forests has to stop immediately. Conversion of forest into plantations, fields and settlements and rampant illegal logging are threatening some of the most important habitats of our endangered elephants and tigers.”
Adi Susmianto
“The forest-dwellers have grown weary of wandering in the forests; following the Guru's Teachings, see your Husband Lord within your heart.”
Atharva Veda
“As the forest went, so went the bird. It's an indicator species, representative of what we did to the forests. Having it return is perhaps a sign that the forests and habitat are coming back as well.”
