Tree Kill

Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or kill:

“Even when seen from near, the olive shows
A hue of far away. Perhaps for this
The dove brought olive back, a tree which grows
Unearthly pale, which ever dims and dries,
And whose great thirst, exceeding all excess,
Teaches the South it is not paradise.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

“I said to myself, “The only thing they can do is kill my body. They are not going to get my mind, and my soul will live on in my children and in other people.””
—Shahieda Issel (b. 1957)
