Famous quotes containing the words search and/or tree:
“His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“The wind flapped loose, the wind was still,
Shaken out dead from tree and hill:
I had walked on at the winds will,
I sat now, for the wind was still.”
—Dante Gabriel Rossetti (18281882)
