Trees Fall

Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or fall:

    “Usually the scenery about them is drear and savage enough; and the logger’s camp is as completely in the woods as a fungus at the foot of a pine in a swamp; no outlook but to the sky overhead; no more clearing than is made by cutting down the trees of which it is built, and those which are necessary for fuel.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Here did she fall a tear. Here in this place
    I’ll set a bank of rue, sour herb-of-grace.
    Rue even for ruth here shortly shall be seen
    In the remembrance of a weeping queen.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
