Quote by E.C. Bröwa

“Si sentiva fiero di essere un albero; [...] gli alberi rappresentavano veramente la vita, creavano le condizioni ideali e indispensabili per l’esistenza di tutti, almeno, così era nella porzione di mondo che Tronco grigio conosceva.”

“... the Trappist world appeals to me as a model of wisdom...so infitesimally is the day divided among different occupations. The man who keeps rabbits, for example, hurries from his hutches to the chapel, or the chapter-room, or the refectory, all day long: every hour he has an office to sing, a duty to perform; from two, when he rises in the dark, till eight, when he returns to receive the comforting gift of sleep, he is upon his feet and occupied with manifold and changing business. I know many persons, worth several thousands in the year, who are not so fortunate in the disposal of their lives... We speak of hardships, but the true hardship is to be a dull fool, and permitted to mismanage life in our own dull and foolish manner.”
