Excerpt from Correspondences of the Bible, Vol. 2: The Plants the Minerals and the Atmospheres The correspondence of plants with elements of humanity is less evident than that of animals; for the activity and demonstrativeness of animals force upon us a recognition of their likeness to ourselves, and call out our sympathy with the affections and passions which they exhibit.
