Sitka Spruce Top

Famous quotes containing the words spruce and/or top:

    In some of those dense fir and spruce woods there is hardly room for the smoke to go up. The trees are a standing night, and every fir and spruce which you fell is a plume plucked from night’s raven wing.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    You shouldn’t be looking at the bottom of the mountain. Why don’t you try looking at the top some time?
    Robert Riskin (1897–1955)
