“Contrary to implicit tenets of the green movement, not all that is natural is beautiful, and not all that is beautiful is natural. Maybe that's why the world needs poets. Not to interpret what is plain and obvious, but to help us take pause and reflect on the beauty of people, places, and ideas—things we might otherwise take for granted. Simple beauty that emanates from simple truths.” — Neil deGrasse Tyson
