Sacred Tree

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or tree:

“See how the sacred old flamingoes come,
Painting with shadow all the marble steps:
Aged and wise, they seek their wonted perches
Within the temple, devious walking, made
To wander by their melancholy minds.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Cynicism is the humour of hatred.”
—Herbert Beerbohm, Sir Tree (1853–1917)
