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

The tree of life was always there. Evolution just fills in the gaps.

Sometimes it's best to speak from ignorance: that way, you can see the wood without being distracted by the trees.

Our life is full of empty space.

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.

I was in my yard and thought that the tree was a living being. We take trees for granted. We don't believe they are as much alive as we are.
