For purposes of a current contest, the trees featured in this image, still standing strong after years of weathering the beating winds of the Northern California coast, might well have inspired the thoughts of the writer of this quotation: "And even more I revere them [trees] when they stand alone. They are like lonely persons. Not like hermits who have stolen away out of some weakness, but like great, solitary men, like Beethoven and Nietzsche." These trees are not sequestered in some safe and secluded hideaway, but are standing resolutely and tenaciously in an often hostile environment, as a testament and an inspiration to us all.
