Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or fall:
“The trees persist, yeasty and sensuous,
as thick as saints.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“The morning rose, that untouched stands
Armed with her briars, how sweet she smells!
But plucked and strained through ruder hands,
Her sweets no longer with her dwells,
But scent and beauty both are gone,
And leaves fall from her, one by one.”
—Sir Robert Ayton (1570–1638)
