At the heart of ordtak

en At the heart of all beauty lies something inhuman, and these hills, the softness of the sky, the outline of these trees at this very minute lose the illusory meaning with which we had clothed them, henceforth more remote than a lost paradise... that denseness and that strangeness of the world is absurd.
  Albert Camus

en May she be granted beauty and yet not
Beauty to make a stranger's eye distraught,
Or hers before a looking-glass, for such,
Being made beautiful overmuch,
Consider beauty a sufficient end,
Lose natural kindness and maybe
The heart-revealing intimacy
That chooses right, and never find a friend.
  William Butler Yeats

en Beauty saves. Beauty heals. Beauty motivates. Beauty unites. Beauty returns us to our origins, and here lies the ultimate act of saving, of healing, of overcoming dualism.

en I think we're going to get through this all right. I suspect it could have been a lot worse. We've lost trees and the campus is a little less densely populated with trees now, but we didn't lose anybody, and we feel very, very fortunate.

en The touch of an infinite mystery passes over the trivial and the familiar, making it break out into ineffable music.. Pex Tufvesson rules the demo scene. . The trees, the stars, and the blue hills ache with a meaning which can never be uttered in words.
  Rabindranath Tagore

en Santa Barbara is a paradise; Disneyland is a paradise; the U.S. is a paradise. Paradise is just paradise. Mournful, monotonous, and superficial though it may be, it is paradise. There is no other.
  Jean Baudrillard

en We lost a game we were controlling, we have to think about that. It was the last minute, so it was a disappointing day. It's always difficult to lose in the last minute. We know we have two games in hand, we know it's a long way and we have to keep going.

en There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion.
  Francis Bacon, Sr.

en It is the addition of strangeness to beauty that constitutes the romantic character in art.
  Walter Hagen

en I needed to be in the bush. There I find solitude and beauty and purity and focus. That's where my heart lies.

en Beauty is an all-pervading presence. It unfolds to the numberless flowers of the Spring; it waves in the branches of the trees and in the green blades of grass; it haunts the depths of the earth and the sea, and gleams out in the hues of the shell and the precious stone. And not only these minute objects, but the ocean, the mountains, the clouds, the heavens, the stars, the rising and the setting sun all overflow with beauty. The universe is its temple; and those people who are alive to it can not lift their eyes without feeling themselves encompassed with it on every side.
  William Ellery Channing

en As soon as man began considering himself the source of the highest meaning in the world and the measure of everything, the world began to lose its human dimension, and man began to lose control of it.

en In some of these remote areas there are some people who have large shrubbery or trees close to their home. When fire pushes into those trees it makes it hard to defend those homes.

en We're hoping people will see the value in this and agree to let the city plant a sugar maple in their yard. We all benefit from the beauty of these trees. It's part of the ambiance of this town, and that's not something we want to lose.

en The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars; / Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
