“You can't be part of the side that loses the Ashes after all these years.”
Adam Gilchrist
“Ashes to Ashes and Dust to Dust, Atom to Atom, Returning to the ONE.”
Wake Up! Message
“A volcanic plume rises until the atmosphere becomes so thin that the mixture of air and ash loses buoyancy and starts to spread laterally, forming an umbrella. The umbrella spreads and cools for a long time before the ash begins to fall gradually.”
Gustavo Gioia
“We could stand to lose all our ash trees. If we can keep tracking this insect, it's possible we can buy enough time we can develop better detection methods and better pesticides. There may be still a chance we'll be able to control this insect.”
Jodie Ellis
“I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”
Jack London
“Ashes fly back into the face of him who throws them”
African Proverb
“The little dog lay curled and did not rise But slept the deeper as the ashes rose, And found the people incomplete”
Richard Wilbur
