There is life in a stone. Any stone that sits in a field or lies on a beach takes on the memory of that place. You can feel that stones have witnessed so many things.

People also leave presence in a place even when they are no longer there.

The first snowball I froze was put in my mother's deep freeze when I was in my early 20s.

The early firings contained many stones.

I have six acres in front of my own house, which I very rarely work on. Most of the work occurs on farmers' fields around me. And I like the discipline of working on other people's land.

We often forget that WE ARE NATURE. Nature is not something separate from us. So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature, we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.

The things that I make are that which a person will make. They're not meant to mimic nature. They are nothing but the result of a hand of a person.
