While there may be no "right" way to value a forest or a river, there is a wrong way, which is to give it no value at all. How do we decide the value of a 700-year-old tree? We need only to ask how much it would cost to make a new one, or a new river, or even a new atmosphere. — Paul Hawken

The world is wide; no two days are alike, nor even two hours; neither were there ever two leaves of a tree alike since the creation of the world; and the genuine productions of art, like those of nature, are all distinct from one another. — John Constable

Neighbors bring food with death and flowers with sickness and little things in between. Boo was our neighbor.

Down the stream of the soft spring breeze;
Like children with violets playing,
In the shade of the whispering trees. — Charles Kingsley

Toward heaven still,
And there's a barrel that I didn't fill
Beside it, and there may be two or three

But I am done with apple-picking now.
Essence of winter sleep is on the night,
The scent of apples: I am drowsing off. — Robert Frost
BELOVED, gaze in thine own heart, The holy tree is growing there. — William Butler Yeats
So my doctor told me to watch what I'm eating - to read food labels. I'm in the store reading the Fig Newtons label: I've always liked Fig Newtons. I'm reading the label to make sure everything's fine: fat content. I looked at the serving size; two cookies. Who eats two cookies? I eat Fig Newtons by the sleeve: two sleeves is a serving size. I open them both and eat them like a tree chipper; Fig Newton shavings coming off the side. — Brian Regan

He was skinning a bear. I was terrified at first, because the corpse resembled a naked man quartered between two trees. He'd created a deadfall trap over some big talus blocks and the bear had fallen in. He used the skin for something and jerked the meat. If it wasn't astonishing enough behavior in a national park, the next day he made donuts, using bear fat for grease ! Surely, by now, he's created an empire somewhere in the world. — Dave Cook
