Famous quotes containing the words dried and/or leaves:
“God went out of me
as if the sea dried up like sandpaper,
as if the sun became a latrine.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Such is oftenest the young mans introduction to the forest, and the most original part of himself. He goes thither at first as a hunter and fisher, until at last, if he has the seeds of a better life in him, he distinguishes his proper objects, as a poet or naturalist it may be, and leaves the gun and fish-pole behind. The mass of men are still and always young in this respect.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
