"Whatever is powerful to you can be translated into something which will matter to somebody that you will never know." ••Jeanette Winterson

“If I shut my eyes it returns: the evocation of a whole wood, a whole world of wood-darkness and flowers and birds and late summer silence, of a million leaves turning mellowly to death. It becomes then more than the mere memory of a wood, the first and the best wood I have ever known. It is the redistillation of another and more lovely world.”

― H.E. Bates, Through the Woods
