“Nobody speaks. And the tree stands just ahead of us. I walk towards it, trancelike, and I am glad that no one is following me. It towers over me with a defiant agelessness. Branches gnarled and threatening, some thin enough to snap in two. Others that are thick enough to throw a rope over. I touch its bark. Dad said once that you can tell the story of a tree by cutting it open. I sometimes feel that way. I can't always express what I am feeling out loud. But with paper and pen, I can make sense of everything. There would be no paper without trees, even cursed ones like this.”

“واجتمع في بعض الزمان ملوك الأقاليم من الصين والهند وفارس والروم، وقالوا: ينبغي أن يتكلم كلّ واحد منّا بكلمة تدوّن عنه على غابر الدّهر. فقال ملك الصين: أنا على رد ما لم أقل أقدر منّي على ردّ ما قلت. وقال ملك الهند: عجبت ممّن يتكلم بالكلمة، إن كانت له لم تنفعه، وإن كانت عليه أوبقته. وقال ملك فارس: إذا تكلمت بالكلمة ملكتني، وإذا لم أتكلم بها ملكتها. وقال ملك الرّوم: ما ندمت على ما لم أتكلم به قط، ولقد ندمت على ما تكلمت به كثيرًا. والسكوت عند الملوك أحسن من الهذر الذي لا يرجع منه إلى نفع، وأفضل ما استظلّ به الإنسان لسانه”
