To know a tree's name is the beginning of acquaintance. "To learn how they live and behave in 
pure wildness, to see them in varying aspects through the seasons and weather, rejoicing in the great 
storms, putting forth their new leaves and flowers when all the streams are in flood and the birds sing¬ 
ing, and sending away their seeds in the thoughtful Indian Summer, when all the landscape is glowing 
in deep, calm enthusiasm. For this you must love them and live with them as free from schemes and 
care as the trees themselves."
