"One of the uses of poetry is to reveal and articulate and make and preserve the necessary connections between the domestic and the wild. It is one of the ways we may, with hope of return, get out of our minds (our own and other people's) into the world of creatures, forms and powers that we did not make."
- Wendell Berry in Poetry and Place, an essay from Standing By Words, page 193.
