Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or blown:
“Let us have a good many maples and hickories and scarlet oaks, then, I say. Blaze away! Shall that dirty roll of bunting in the gun-house be all the colors a village can display? A village is not complete, unless it have these trees to mark the season in it. They are important, like the town clock. A village that has them not will not be found to work well. It has a screw loose, an essential part is wanting.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“They change, and we, who pass like foam,
Like dust blown through the streets of Rome,
Change ever, too; we have no home,”
—John Masefield (1878–1967)
