Plant Roots

Famous quotes containing the words plant and/or roots:

    Here come the line-gang pioneering by.
    They throw a forest down less cut than broken.
    They plant dead trees for living, and the dead
    They string together with a living thread.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    April is the cruellest month, breeding
    Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
    Memory and desire, stirring
    Dull roots with spring rain.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
