Famous quotes containing the words elm and/or trees:
“Men nowhere, east or west, live yet a natural life, round which the vine clings, and which the elm willingly shadows. Man would desecrate it by his touch, and so the beauty of the world remains veiled to him. He needs not only to be spiritualized, but naturalized, on the soil of earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.”
—Willa Cather (18761947)
