“Even the smallest woods have their secrets and secret places, their unmarked precincts. And I am certain all sacred buildings from the greatest cathedral to the smallest chapel, and in all religions, derive from the natural aura of certain woodland or forest settings. In them we stand among older, larger and infinitely other beings, remoter from us than the most bizarre other non-human forms of life: blind, immobile, waiting….. altogether very like the only form a universal god could conceivably take.”
John Fowles & Frank Horvat “The Tree”
