a photo of a fall day, orange, red and green leaves on the ground with a bokeh of light in the background and a quote above the leaves

“I think the plants are primary organisms, and we are the secondary ones. We are fully dependent on them. Without them, we would not be able to survive. The opposite situation would not be so drastic for them.”
