FORESTS
[ Also see Nature Wilderness Woods ]

The forest laments in order that Mr. Gladstone may perspire.
      - Sir Randolph Henry Spencer Churchill,
        in a speech on Financial Reform at Blackpool, referring to Gladstone's tree felling hobby

The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.
      - Ralph Waldo Emerson

The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
      - John Muir

Away, away, from men and towns,
  To the wild wood and the downs,
    To the silent wilderness.
      - Percy Bysshe Shelley

Summer or winter, day or night,
  The woods are an ever-new delight;
    They give us peace, and they make us strong,
      Such wonderful balms to them belong:
        So, living or dying, I'll take mine ease
          Under the trees, under the trees.
      - Richard Henry Stoddard
