But indeed, it is not so much for its beauty
that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts,
as for that subtle something,
that quality of the air,
that emanation from the old trees,
that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
by Robert Louis Stevenson - "Essays of Travel" (1905) Forest Notes.
