Tree Fall

Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or fall:

    The pine tree seems to listen, the fir tree seems to wait, and neither with impatience:Mthey give no thought to the little people below them whose impatience and curiosity eat them up alive.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I think a lot of people believe I’m going to fall flat on my face, and they’re still waiting for it to happen. I hope they wait forever, and I hope they keep coming to watch me.
    Christine Wren, U.S. baseball umpire. As quoted in WomenSports magazine, p. 15 (October 1975)
