Sacred Tree

Famous quotes containing the words sacred and/or tree:

    I want the necessity of supplying my own wants. All this costly culture of yours is not necessary. Greatness does not need it. Yonder peasant, who sits neglected, carries a whole revolution of man and nature in his head, which shall be a sacred history to some future ages.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    As a tree my sin stands
    To darken all lands;
    Death is the fruit it bore.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
