Famous quotes containing the words fair and/or trees:

    There they lived on, those New England people, farmer lives, father and grandfather and great-grandfather, on and on without noise, keeping up tradition, and expecting, beside fair weather and abundant harvests, we did not learn what.

    go on and itch Trees you don’t know anything
