Hairy Tree

Famous quotes containing the words hairy and/or tree:

    There is the old brute, too, the savage, the hairy man who dabbles his fingers in ropes of entrails; and gobbles and belches; whose speech is guttural, visceral—well, he is here. He squats in me.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    It is, I fear, but a vain show of fulfilling the heathen precept, “Know thyself,” and too often leads to a self-estimate which will subsist in the absence of that fruit by which alone the quality of the tree is made evident.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
