\”As with all my work, whether it\’s a leaf on a rock or ice on a rock, I\’m trying to get beneath the surface appearance of things. Working the surface of a stone is an attempt to understand the internal energy of the stone.\”
~Andy Goldsworthy

\”Ideas must be put to the test. That\’s why we make things, otherwise they would be no more than ideas. There is often a huge difference between an idea and its realization. I\’ve had what I thought were great ideas that just didn\’t work.\”
