“es gribu dvēseli izdvašot
uz tavas plaukstas

lai akmens kas tev uz krūtīm
pārvēršas zieda drīksnā
lai dangaina taka
varavīksnā

rīt atvērsies cīruļi
upe degs un meklēs krastu
bet vai tavai plaukstai vajadzēs
vēl vienas pasaules nastu?”
― Knuts Skujenieks

“fundamental view of the world. It says that when you build a thing you cannot merely build that thing in isolation, but must also repair the world around it, and within it, so that the larger world at that one place becomes more coherent, and more whole; and the thing which you make takes its place in the web of nature, as you make it.”
― Christopher W. Alexander, A Pattern Language: Towns, Buildings, Construction
