When you're a kid you just take trees for granted. Then when you get to be an adult you realize that a fully mature tree cannot be created in an amount of time that fits in a convenient landscaping timeframe for love nor money nor all the powers of science. Then you realize that people are very very very cavalier about chopping them down

Assumption of the Virgin by Egid Quirin Asam, ca. 1717. This three-dimensional display comprised of multiple statues is without a doubt one of the most stunning works of art I’ve ever seen - a true credit to Catholic art.

ὃ δὲ βουλόμεθα γνῶναι τόδ’ ἐστίν, ὡς ἄρα δεινόν τι καὶ ἄγριον καὶ ἄνομον ἐπιθυμιῶν εἶδος ἑκάστῳ ἔνεστι, καὶ πάνυ δοκοῦσιν ἡμῶν ἐνίοις μετρίοις εἶναι.

What we seek to understand is this: that within each of us there dwells a terrible, savage, and lawless species of desire, even in those who appear most measured.
