Tree Names

Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or names:

“It never had been inside the room,
And only one of the two
Was afraid in an oft-repeated dream
Of what the tree might do.”

“It is a sad truth, but we have lost the faculty of giving lovely names to things. Names are everything. I never quarrel with actions. My one quarrel is with words.... The man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one. It is the only thing he is fit for.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
