Growth
It is not growing like a tree
In bulk, doth make man better be;
Or standing long an oak, three hundred year,
To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere:
A lily of a day
Is fairer far in May,
Although it falls and die that night—
It was the plant and flower of Light.
Ben Jonson, Pindaric Ode on the Death of Sir H. Morison.
Growth
Growth is exciting; growth is dynamic and alarming. Growth of the soul, growth of the mind; how the observation of last year seems childish, superficial; how this year — even this week — even with this new phrase — it seems to us that we have grown to a new maturity. It may be a fallacious persuasion, but at least it is stimulating, and so long as it persists, one does not stagnate.
Vita Sackville-West, Twelve Days (1928) p. 9; part of this appears to have also become paraphrased in the form:
Growth
Gardener, for telling me these news of woe,
Pray God the plants thou graft'st may never grow.
William Shakespeare, Richard II (c. 1595), Act III, scene 4, line 100.
Sediments and landforms left behind by retreating glaciers can provide valuable information on the processes that shaped them. Reconstructing the behaviour of glaciers and ice sheets could provide important indicators of environmental change.
