I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.

If you're not a tree hugger, then you're a what, a tree hater?

A tree is an incomprehensible mystery.

If you would know strength and patience, welcome the company of trees.

In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they're still beautiful.

Like people, trees are all individuals.

I am not a tree-hugger and I don't think mine is an extreme point of view.

A tree growing out of the ground is as wonderful today as it ever was. It does not need to adopt new and startling methods.

We ought to think that we are one of the leaves of a tree, and the tree is all humanity. We cannot live without the others, without the tree.

Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.
