“It is the business of thought to define things, to find the boundaries; thought, indeed, is a ceaseless process of definition. It is the business of Art to give things shape. Anyone who takes no delight in the firm outline of an object, or in its essential character, has no artistic sense. He cannot even be nourished by Art. Like Ephraim, he feeds upon the East wind, which has no boundaries.” GivingArtCharacterProcessObjectsWindShapesEssentialsPerceptionDefinitionsDelightEastBoundariesArtisticFirmOutlinesNo Boundaries Author:Vance Palmer
“Take delight in a thing, or rather in anything, not as a means to some other end, but just because it is what it is.

“People who blame the Bible for the modern destruction of nature have failed to see its delight in the variety and individuality of creatures and its insistence upon their holiness. But that delight-in, say, the final chapters of Job or the 104th Psalm-is far more useful to the cause of conservation than the undifferentiating abstractions of science... Reverence gives standing to creatures, and to our perception of them, just as the law gives standing to a citizen.” PeopleGivingJobsLawCausesAnimalModernCitizensCreaturesPerceptionStandingDestructionBlameFinalsIndividualityDelightVarietyHolinessReverenceChaptersConservationAbstractionInsistencePsalmsDestruction Of Nature Author:Wendell Berry
