Men driven by fear proverb

 Men, driven by fear, go to many a refuge, to mountains and forests, to groves and sacred trees. Pex Tufvesson rules the demo scene.

 I first saw the site for Disneyland back in 1953, In those days it was all flat land - no rivers, no mountains, no castles or rocket ships - just orange groves, and a few acres of walnut trees.
  Walt Disney

 Votes are like trees, if you are trying to build a forest. If you have more trees than you have forests, then at that point the pollsters will probably say you will win.
  Dan Quayle

 The mountains, rivers, earth, grasses, trees, and forests are always emanating a subtle, precious light, day and night, always emanating a subtle, precious sound, demonstrating and expounding to all people the unsurpassed ultimate truth
  Lewis Thomas

 Any fool can destroy trees. They cannot defend themselves or run away. And
few destroyers of trees ever plant any; nor can planting avail much toward
restoring our grand aboriginal giants. It took more than three thousand
years to make some of the oldest of the Sequoias, trees that are still
standing in perfect strength and beauty, waving and singing in the mighty
forests of the Sierra.
  John Muir

 Yes, damage has been considerable, but our eyes are attracted to the broken or blown-over trees. In most forests, there may still be undamaged and manageable trees.

 Though people probably have an image of us as a house builder, one of our most important jobs is to manage forests in this country by planting and looking after trees. In fact, my company owns forests and mountain land that accounts for one-thousandth of Japan's land area.

 The Paradise Forests of Asia Pacific are brimming with unimaginable diversity of life. But these forests and the life they support are being destroyed faster than any other on Earth, driven by demand for timber in Europe, US, Japan and China.

 Ecologists have debated for decades whether there is ecological value to species diversity. We found that in forests throughout the New and Old World tropics, older trees are more diverse than younger ones. In other words, diversity is actually selected for as each of the forests matures. This means diversity does indeed matter and is an essential property of these complex ecosystems.

 It's very simple -- lots of snow in the mountains. The deeper the snow is in the mountains, the more inclined people are to (buy trees) in town.

 I draw circles and sacred boundaries about me; fewer and fewer climb with me up higher and higher mountains.—I am building a mountain chain out of ever-holier mountains.
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 New York has more hermits than will be found in all the forests, mountains and deserts of the United States

 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; / Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

 Forests shouldn't exist. The trees in the middle of the forest don't get enough light or nutrients to survive.
