Famous quotes containing the words family tree, family and/or tree:

    A poem is like a person. Though it has a family tree, it is important not because of its ancestors but because of its individuality. The poem, like any human being, is something more than its most complete analysis. Like any human being, it gives a sense of unified individuality which no summary of its qualities can reproduce; and at the same time a sense of variety which is beyond satisfactory final analysis.
    Donald Stauffer (b. 1930)

    Much that is urged on us new parents is useless, because we didn’t really choose it. It was pushed on us. It—whether it be Raffi videos, French lessons, or the complete works of Brazelton—might be just right for you and your particular child. But it is only right when you feel that it is. You know your family best; you decide.
    Sonia Taitz (20th century)

    The wind flapped loose, the wind was still,
    Shaken out dead from tree and hill:
    I had walked on at the wind’s will,—
    I sat now, for the wind was still.
    Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)
