Famous quotes containing the words unpacked and/or tree:
“But to him
The love was a solid object, like a partly unpacked trunk,
As it was then, which is different now when remembered.”

“I expect a time when, or rather an integrity by which, a man will get his coat as honestly and as perfectly fitting as a tree its bark. Now our garments are typical of our conformity to the ways of the world, i.e., of the devil, and to some extent react on us and poison us, like that shirt which Hercules put on.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
