Famous quotes containing the word branches:
“I couldnt afford to learn it, said the Mock Turtle with a sigh. I only took the regular course.
What was that? inquired Alice.

I never heard of Uglification, Alice ventured to say.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“Bare woods, whose branches strain,
Deep caves and dreary main,
Wail, for the worlds wrong.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)
