Like people, trees are all individuals.
No one can reap the fruit before planting the trees.
Whenever I see a tree that is climbable, it must be climbed. Sometimes when I'm on a run, I'll just run up a tree, jump on a branch and swing off. My favorite tree, in Saratoga, gets me a good 75 feet up.
You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
I can't see the forest through the trees, except the trees are people.
Even if one tree falls down it wouldn't affect the entire forest.
You can assume that the leaf you see let go of a branch and fall towards the ground has never been considered by any being but yourself. Catch it in your hand - or, even better, keep walking until one falls into your reach naturally - and it will have spent its whole time on the planet without ever touching the ground, only because of you.
If you're not a tree hugger, then you're a what, a tree hater?
A tree is an incomprehensible mystery.
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.
