It is the path of beautification.

“We need to return to harmony with Nature
and with each other,
to become what humans were destined to be,

hobbits (if you will),
not Masters over creatures great and small.”

“It is not reasonable that art should win
the place of honor over our great and powerful
mother Nature. We have so overloaded
the beauty and richness of her works
by our inventions that we have quite smothered her.”
