“The eye doesn’t see any shapes, it sees only what is differentiated through light and dark or through colors.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

“Men nowhere, east or west, live yet a natural life, round which the vine clings, and which the elm willingly shadows. Man would desecrate it by his touch, and so the beauty of the world remains veiled to him. He needs not only to be spiritualized, but naturalized, on the soil of earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
