Sacred Tree

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or tree:

“Today, the degradation of the inner life is symbolized by the fact that the only place sacred from interruption is the private toilet.”

“On every tree a bucket with a lid,
And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
They were content to figure in the trees
As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
And that was what the boughs were full of soon.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
