"That year the Ribeiro's daffodils seeded early and they seeded cockroaches. Now, ecologically speaking, even a cockroach has its place -- but these suckers bit. That didn't sound Earth-authentic to me. Not that I care, mind you, all I ask is useful. I wasn't betting on that either."
Janet Kagan
"I trust in nature for the stable laws of beauty and utility. Spring shall plant and autumn garner to the end of time."
Robert Browning
"I would warn you that I do not attribute to nature either beauty or deformity, order or confusion. Only in relation to our imagination can things be called beautiful or ugly, well-ordered or confused."
Baruch Spinoza
"Trees, their incremental gymnastics and noisy silence, are another wonder of Outside to me."
David Mitchell
"The desert became grim, dark and foreboding. A silence of death lay over the land, and it seemed as though the very stars held their breath and twinkled no more."
Alan Kinross
"There is something subversive about this garden of Serena's, a sense of buried things bursting upwards, wordlessly, into the light, as if to point, to say: Whatever is silenced will clamor to be heard, though silently."
Margaret Atwood
"If you want to go foraging into the wilds of Canada without proper gear, you deserve what you get, even if that happens to include being attacked by an undead moose."
Mira Grant
"What I worry about is climate change, because that would have untold effects that we can't even measure yet."
Susan George
"Natural beauty really entices men. They will tell you this time and time again, and studies consistently prove it."
Helen Fisher
"Nature's laws must be obeyed, and the period of decline begins, and goes on with accelerated rapidity."
Warren De la Rue
"Design needs a new relationship with the world, one that is more focused on our planet's needs."
Yves Behar
"Wadsworth MoorWhere the millstone of skyGrinds light and shadow so purple-fineAnd has ground it so longGrinding the skin off the earthEarth bleeds her raw true darknessA land naked now as a woundThat the sun swabs and dabsWhere the miles of agony are numbnessAnd harebell and heather a euphoria."
Ted Hughes
"The roaring of lions, the howling of wolves, the raging of the stormy sea, and the destructive sword, are portions of eternity, too great for the eye of man."
Anonymous
"You don't have to live in the country and grow your own food to be green."
Shalom Harlow
"Now the night's breath responds to the sea, which I can scarcely hear from here, as it reminisces about its shipwrecks."
