"For me, trees have always been the nearly penetrating preachers. I revere them when they live in tribes and families, in forests and groves. And even more than I revere them when they stand lonely. They are like lonely persons. Not like hermits who have stolen away out of some weakness, but like great, solitary men, similar Beethoven and Nietzsche. In their highest boughs the globe rustles, their roots rest in infinity; but they do not lose themselves there, they struggle with all the strength of their lives for 1 thing only: to fulfil themselves according to their own laws, to build upward their own form, to represent themselves. Nada is holier, nothing is more exemplary than a beautiful, strong tree. When a tree is cut downwardly and reveals its naked expiry-wound to the lord's day, ane can read its whole history in the luminous, inscribed disk of its torso: in the rings of its years, its scars, all the struggle, all the suffering, all the sickness, all the happiness and prosperity stand truly written, the narrow years and the luxurious years, the attacks withstood, the storms endured. And every young farmboy knows that the hardest and noblest forest has the narrowest rings, that high on the mountains and in continuing danger the virtually indestructible, the strongest, the platonic trees grow.

Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, tin can learn the truth. They do non preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient police force of life.

A tree says: A kernel is subconscious in me, a spark, a thought, I am life from eternal life. The attempt and the chance that the eternal female parent took with me is unique, unique the class and veins of my peel, unique the smallest play of leaves in my branches and the smallest scar on my bark. I was made to form and reveal the eternal in my smallest special detail.

A tree says: My forcefulness is trust. I know nix about my fathers, I know null most the thousand children that every year spring out of me. I live out the secret of my seed to the very end, and I intendance for nothing else. I trust that God is in me. I trust that my labor is holy. Out of this trust I live.

When we are stricken and cannot bear our lives any longer, then a tree has something to say to united states: Be nevertheless! Be still! Look at me! Life is not easy, life is not difficult. Those are kittenish thoughts. Let God speak within you lot, and your thoughts volition grow silent. You are anxious because your path leads abroad from mother and home. Only every step and every day lead you back over again to the mother. Home is neither here nor there. Home is within y'all, or abode is nowhere at all.

A longing to wander tears my heart when I hear trees rustling in the wind at evening. If ane listens to them silently for a long time, this longing reveals its kernel, its meaning. It is non then much a matter of escaping from one'south suffering, though information technology may seem to be then. Information technology is a longing for home, for a memory of the female parent, for new metaphors for life. It leads dwelling. Every path leads homeward, every stride is birth, every pace is death, every grave is mother.

And so the tree rustles in the evening, when we stand uneasy earlier our own kittenish thoughts: Copse take long thoughts, long-breathing and restful, simply equally they accept longer lives than ours. They are wiser than we are, as long as we exercise non listen to them. But when we have learned how to heed to trees, so the brevity and the quickness and the childlike hastiness of our thoughts achieve an unequalled joy. Whoever has learned how to heed to trees no longer wants to be a tree. He wants to be goose egg except what he is. That is home. That is happiness."
