Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or fall:
“Power is, in nature, the essential measure of right. Nature suffers nothing to remain in her kingdoms which cannot help itself. The genesis and maturation of a planet, its poise and orbit, the bended tree recovering itself from the strong wind, the vital resources of every animal and vegetable, are demonstrations of the self-sufficing and therefore self-relying soul.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When love and adventure are finished, it’s nice to have getting and spending to fall back on.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
