A company that can't fire people well is like a forest that never has a fire. It becomes overgrown, full of weeds, and it fails.
We are aware only of the empty space in the forest, which only yesterday was filled with trees.
My friends and I would get up early and take our horses through the national forest. My mom was very free. It was always 'Out of the house!' There was no watching television on weekends.
I'm kind of a gossip hound, but watching the media whip the small fires into giant forest fires so that they can cover the result is infuriating.
I grew up in a forest. It's like a room. It's protected. Like a cathedral... it is a place between heaven and earth.
I can recall, as a young adult, running through the rain forest at the Forest Reserve, at times feeling a sense of fear when I felt I was in danger. In danger of confronting an ugly snake or a coral snake, which represented the greatest fear of someone in a rural area when you traverse the forest.
I have a dream that in the not-too-distant future, Visy Tumut will spend around $100 m to expand our clean energy generation here and take in additional waste forest wood to generate clean renewable energy and sell it into the power grid.
Idras Elba was from Forest Gate - where I am from - there are a lot of great people around if they can be given a chance or have the belief.
I was a beach boy, and I believe I learned my songs from the birds of the Brazilian forest.
