Montane Rain Forests

Famous quotes containing the words rain and/or forests:

“When the shingles hissed
in the rain incendiary,
other values were revealed to us,”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“Sprung from the West,
He drank the valorous youth of a new world.
The strength of virgin forests braced his mind,
The hush of spacious prairies stilled his soul.
His words were oaks in acorns; and his thoughts
Were roots that firmly gript the granite truth.”
—Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
