Trees

Famous quotes containing the word trees:

    “In some of those dense fir and spruce woods there is hardly room for the smoke to go up. The trees are a standing night, and every fir and spruce which you fell is a plume plucked from night’s raven wing.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It were a blessed sight to see
    That child become a willow tree,
    His brother trees among.
    He’d be four times as tall as me,
    And live three times as long.”
    —Catherine Maria Fanshawe (1765–1834)
