Mast Trees

Famous quotes containing the words mast and/or trees:

    “I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The mountain stood there to be pointed at.
    Pasture ran up the side a little way,
    And then there was a wall of trees with trunks;
    After that only tops of trees, and cliffs
    Imperfectly concealed among the leaves.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
