“Er ontstaat ruimte voor spontane ontwikkeling, los van welk waardeoordeel dan ook. We laten ons verassen.”
Rob Bijlsma, Kerken van goud, dominees van hout

Richard Mabey
“However, recent research on the mechanisms of evolution is revealing adaptations which are not traceable to individual genes. It’s long been known that many plants – e.g. juniper and fat-hen – can exist in different forms in different habitats without there being any discernible genetic variation between the types. It now looks as if these ‘epigenetic’ effects can be produced in individual plants within a very few seasons or generations, by a process as simple as transplantation. Some of this adaptive behaviour is controlled by master gene complexes which are both very ancient and occur right across the living world. The large, aggressive, ‘weedy’ rosebay may in fact be the original form which developed in open and disturbed post-glacial conditions, and the smaller, daintier form an epigenetic adaptation to shade and woodland. The ancestral form was ‘switched on’ again when humans created facsimiles of the flower’s original home.”
Richard Mabey, Weeds: In Defense of Nature's Most Unloved Plants by Richard Mabey

“Soortbeheer verdwijnt ten faveure van onderzoek naar en beschermen van ecosystemen. Daarmee komt een eind aan de talloos vele maatregelen die worden voorgesteld om soort x of y te redden ten detrimente van andere organismen en bestaande ecosystemen.”
Rob Bijlsma, Kerken van goud, dominees van hout

“En altijd gericht op iets uit het verleden, daarmee elk spontane ontwikkeling naar iets anders in de kiem smorend.”
Rob Bijlsma, Kerken van goud, dominees van hout

“Bescherming die een status quo nastreeft (een bepaald landschap, deze soorten toegestaan, andere niet) staat sowieso haaks op het wezenskenmerk van de biologie: diversiteit, variatie en verandering. Niets blijft hetzelfde.”
Rob Bijlsma, Kerken van goud, dominees van hout
