Woods Quotes

Imagine you are walking in the woods and you see a small dog sitting by a tree. As you approach it, it suddenly lunges at you, teeth bared. You are frightened and angry. But then you notice that one of its legs is caught in a trap. Immediately your mood shifts from anger to concern: You see that the dog’s aggression is coming from a place of vulnerability and pain. This applies to all of us. When we behave in hurtful ways, it is because we are caught in some kind of trap. The more we look through the eyes of wisdom at ourselves and one another, the more we cultivate a compassionate heart Picture Quote #1

I was never lost in the woods in my whole life, though once I was confused for three days Picture Quote #1

I prayed in the woods and on the mountain, even before dawn. I felt no hurt from the snow or ice or rain Picture Quote #1

Our heart wanders lost in the dark woods. Our dream wrestles in the castle of doubt. But there’s music in us. Hope is pushed down but the angel flies up again taking us with her Picture Quote #1

I have always found thick woods a little intimidating, for they are so secret and enclosed. You may seem alone but you are not, for there are always eyes watching you. All the wildlife of the woods, the insects, birds, and animals, are well aware of your presence no matter how softly you may tread, and they follow your every move although you cannot see them Picture Quote #1

Death is the gate of life. Ingratitude is the soul’s enemy... Ingratitude is a burning wind that dries up the source of love, the dew of mercy, the streams of grace. You will find something far greater in the woods than you will find in books. Stones and trees will teach you that which you will never learn from masters Picture Quote #1

What life can I live that will let me breathe in and out and love somebody or something and not run off screaming into the woods? Picture Quote #1

Ordinarily, I go to the woods alone, with not a single friend, for they are all smilers and talkers and therefore unsuitable. I don’t really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds or hugging the old black oak tree. I have my way of praying, as you no doubt have yours. Besides, when I am alone I can become invisible Picture Quote #1

You will say that everyone has seen landscapes and figures from childhood on. The question is: Has everybody also been reflexive as a child? Has everybody who has seen them also loved heath, fields, meadows, woods, and the snow and the rain and the s Picture Quote #1

What right do I have to be in the woods, if the woods are not in me Picture Quote #1

One shouldn’t go to the woods looking for something, but rather to see what is there Picture Quote #1

When you’re lost in those woods, it sometimes takes you a while to realize that you are lost Picture Quote #1

So still were the big woods where I sat, sound might not yet have been born Picture Quote #1

How many hearts with warm, red blood in them are beating under cover of the woods, and how many teeth and eyes are shining? A multitude of animal people, intimately related to us, but of whose lives we know almost nothing, are as busy about their own affairs as we are about ours Picture Quote #1

It was a spring without voices. On the mornings that had once throbbed with the dawn chorus of robins, catbirds, doves, jays, wrens, and scores of other bird voices there was now no sound; only silence lay over the fields and woods and marsh... Even the streams were now lifeless... No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves Picture Quote #1

Come to the woods, for here is rest. There is no repose like that of the green deep woods Picture Quote #1

You can’t tear up everything just to get the dollar out of it without suffering as result. It is a travesty to burn our woods and thereby burn up the fertilizer nature has provided for us. We must enrich our soil every year instead of merely depleting it. It is fundamental that nature will drive away those who commit sin against it Picture Quote #1

They would spend a lot of their time simply walking around in the woods or in the cities, or they would come over to his house and he would teach them with a great deal of humor and laughter about the nature of existence Picture Quote #1

After a snowstorm is the best time to be in the woods, because all the empty beer and soda cans and candy wrappers disappear, and you don’t have to try as hard to be in another time. Plus there’s just something beautiful about walking on snow that nobody else has walked on Picture Quote #1

I go to the movies whenever I get the chance, because the movie theater is like the woods. It’s another place that’s like a time machine Picture Quote #1

Going into the woods alone is the best way to pretend you’re in another time. It’s a thing you can only do alone. If there’s somebody else with you, it’s too easy to remember where you really are Picture Quote #1

When we walk, we naturally go to the fields and woods: what would become of us, if we walked only in a garden or a mall? Picture Quote #1

Doubt is a central factor all the time. There’s always the doubt: What the hell am I doing out here in the middle of the woods, all alone, painting? Picture Quote #1

If you are tired of living on the beaten path that everyone else walks, venture into the woods. Some people would be afraid they would get lost, but a confident woman expects to have a new experience that might be outrageously wonderful Picture Quote #1

Ideally, you would live in an area that is not necessarily in the middle of the country, out in the woods, because you can isolate yourself there and get stuck in your own thoughts Picture Quote #1

Going into the woods, you can go as fast or as slow as you want. It’s restorative. Even when I was young, the wilderness offered not only adventure but also therapy and peace: a place to be alone with your thoughts Picture Quote #1
