"Some storytellers get their best ideas in cities, others perhaps in the desert or at sea. I find them best in the forest, gather them like acorns between the trees and make stories out of them. If a story doesn't want to continue or has become hopelessly lost - the solution is waiting in the forest, that I can be quite sure of. But this only makes all the more worrying the thought that these, of all stories, as soon as they are printed in books, devour this very forest which has given birth to them. I can't come to terms with these thoughts and, I think, nor should I. There must be a way to satisfy our desire for books and stories and keep the countryside in which our stories are born. There must be. Otherwise we will one day not have any stories any more - or any trees."
