Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or fall:
“an endless wind
Whips at the headstones of the dead and wails
In the trees for all who have and have not sinned.”

“I’ve always wondered why European politicians as a group seemed brighter than American politicians as a group. Maybe it’s because many American politicians have the race issue to fall back on. They become lazy, suspicious of innovative ideas, and as a result American institutions atrophy.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
