Famous quotes containing the words tea and/or tree:
“Poor Henry, hes spending eternity wandering round and round a stately park and the fence is just too high for him to peep over and theyre having tea just too far away for him to hear what the countess is saying.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (18741966)
“A tree is made to live in peace in the color of day and in friendship with the sun, the wind and the rain. Its roots plunge in the fat fermentation of the soil, sucking in its elemental humors, its fortifying juices. Trees always seem lost in a great tranquil dream. The dark rising sap makes them groan in the warm afternoons. A tree is a living being that knows the course of the clouds and presses the storms because it is full of birds nests.”
—Jacques Roumain (19071945)
