For me nature is not landscape, but the dynamism of visual forces.

Landscape affects you.

Landscape architecture is basically geodesign; it's designing geography. And yet geodesign is not only done by landscape architects, it's done by some of the world's largest corporations.

Any landscape is a condition of the spirit.

Agriculture changes the landscape more than anything else we do. It alters the composition of species. We don't realize it when we sit down to eat, but that is our most profound engagement with the rest of nature.

The landscape you grow up in speaks to you in a way that nowhere else does.

Landscape is more than flat land covered by floodwater, the seeping of peat bogs, a river of liquid pewter viewed from a sentry tower. It's an influence on what a person values, what she is willing to sacrifice or argue for.

I have to try and change the landscape, whatever it is.
