Grey Forest

Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or forest:

    And Zeus will destroy this race of mortal men too, when they, at their birth, have grey hair on their temples.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

    I perceive that in these woods the earliest settlements are, for various reasons, clustering about the lakes, but partly, I think, for the sake of the neighborhood as the oldest clearings. They are forest schools already established,—great centres of light.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
