Into the Forest
“The career of a sage is of two kinds: He is either honored by all in the world, Like a flower waving its head, Or else he disappears into the silent forest”.

Lao Tzu
“You will find something more in woods than in books. Trees and stones will teach you that which you can never learn from masters”.
Saint Bernard of Clairvaux
“Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life”.
Herman Hesse
