More From Richard Ford

Nor do i think we came from monkeys, by the waythat's another piece of garbage. what the hell's it based on? we couldn't've come from anything-fish, maybe, but not monkeys. i don't believe in the evolution of fish to monkeys to men. why aren't monkeys changing into men now? it's absolute garbage. it's absolutely irrational garbage, as mad as the ones who believe the world was made only four thousand years ago, the fundamentalists.

He was having more fun than a barrelful of monkeys.* *several years earlier spider had actually been tremendously disappointed by a barrelful of monkeys. it had done nothing he had considered particularly entertaining, apart from emit interesting noises, and eventually, once the noises had stopped and the monkeys were no longer doing anything at all—except possibly on an organic level—had needed to be disposed of in the dead of night.

Leaves are usually looked upon as the children of the tree. yes, they are children of the tree, born from the tree, but they are also mothers of the tree. the leaves combine raw sap, water, and minerals, with sunshine and gas, and convert it into a variegated sap that can nourish the tree. in this way, the leaves become the mother of the tree. we are all children of society, but we are also mothers. we have to nourish society. if we are uprooted from society, we can not trasform it into a more liveable place for us and our children.

Christians, of all people, should not be destroyers. we should treat nature with an overwhelming respect. we may cut down a tree to build a house, or to make a fire to keep the family warm. but we should not cut down the tree just to cut down the tree. we may, if necessary, bark the cork tree in order to have the use of the bark. but what we should not do is to bark the tree simply for the sake of doing so, and let it dry and stand there a dead skeleton in the wind. to do so is not to treat the tree with integrity.
Christian Integrity Cutting
Do you say that tree isn't pretty cause it doesn't look like that tree? we're all trees. you're a tree. i'm a tree. you've got to love your body, eve. you've got to love your tree. love your tree. (leah)
Tree Looks Body
Do you know that even when you look at a tree and say, `that is an oak tree', or `that is a banyan tree', the naming of the tree, which is botanical knowledge, has so conditioned your mind that the word comes between you and actually seeing the tree? to come in contact with the tree you have to put your hand on it and the word will not help you to touch it.

It makes me happier, more secure, to think that i do not have to plan and manage everything for myself, that i am only a sword made sharp to smite the unclean forces, an enchanted sword to cleave and disperse them. grant, o lord, that i may not break as i strike! let me not fall from thy hand!
Fall Thinking Hands
Because he sounded so lost-the eric i knew had never been one to do anything other than assume others should serve him-i patted around under the covers for his hand. when i found it, i slid my own over it. his palm was turned up to meet my palm, and his fingers clasped mine. and though i would not have thought it possible to go to sleep holding hands with a vampire, that's exactly what i did.

I started natural farming after the war with just one small plot, but gradually i acquired additional acreage by taking over surrounding pieces of abandoned land and caring for them by hand.
War Caring Hands
There are moments in life when a man retreats defensively, when he must give ground, when he must surrender less important positions in order to protect the more important ones. but should it come to the very last, the most important one, at this point a man must halt and stand firm if he doesn't want to begin life all over again with idle hands and a feeling of being shipwrecked.
