• Woodworking requires a completely different kind of thinking and problem-solving ability than writing. With writing, you take a set of facts and ideas, and you reason your way forward to a story that pulls them together. With woodworking, you start with an end product in mind, and reason your way backward to the raw wood.

  Joshua Foer

• Fine things in wood are important, not only aesthetically, as oddities or rarities, but because we are becoming aware of the fact that much of our life is spent buying and discarding, and buying again, things that are not good. Some of us long to have at least something, somewhere, which will give us harmony and a sense of durability—I won’t say permanence, but durability—things that, through the years, become more and more beautiful, things we can leave to our children.

• Debe existir una unión entre el espíritu de la madera y el espíritu del hombre. La veta de la madera debe estar estrechamente relacionada con su función. La unión del borde de una tabla con una tabla contigua puede significar el éxito o el fracaso de una pieza. () Poco a poco, una forma evoluciona, del mismo modo que la naturaleza produce el árbol en primer lugar. El objeto creado puede vivir para siempre. El árbol vive en su nueva forma. El objeto no puede seguir un "estilo" transitorio, aquí por un momento, desechado al siguiente. Su atractivo debe ser universal. Cordial y receptivo, debe invitar al encuentro con el hombre.
