A few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. But though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease.

  • -- John Muir 约翰·穆尔

几分钟前,每棵树都很兴奋,向怒吼的暴风雨鞠躬,摇摆着,打旋着,挥动着它们的枝干,像在顶礼膜拜。虽然在外耳中,这些树现在是沉默的,但它们的歌声永不停息。
