•• The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of 

 others only a green thing which stands in the way. Some see 

 Nature all ridicule and deformity, and by these I shall not regulate 

 my proportions ; and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the 

 eyes of the man of imagination Nature is Imagination itself. As 

 a man is, so he sees." — William Blake.
