Famous quotes containing the word branches:

    “Bare woods, whose branches strain,
    Deep caves and dreary main,—
    Wail, for the world’s wrong.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “Go to the adolescent who are smothered in family—
    Oh how hideous it is
    To see three generations of one house gathered together!
    It is like an old tree with shoots,
    And with some branches rotted and falling.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
