Island Trees

Famous quotes containing the words island and/or trees:

“An island always pleases my imagination, even the smallest, as a small continent and integral portion of the globe. I have a fancy for building my hut on one. Even a bare, grassy isle, which I can see entirely over at a glance, has some undefined and mysterious charm for me.”

“when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.”
