Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or tree:

    And at his heart there may have gnawed
    Sick memories of a dead faith foiled and flawed
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)

    The pine tree seems to listen, the fir tree seems to wait, and neither with impatience:Mthey give no thought to the little people below them whose impatience and curiosity eat them up alive.
