Famous quotes containing the word trees:

    The fish in neighboring streams and lakes are so voracious, it is said, that fishermen have to stand out of sight behind trees while baiting their hooks.
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    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)

    Bright yellow, red, and orange,
    The leaves come down in hosts;
    The trees are Indian princes,
    But soon they’ll turn to ghosts;
    William Allingham (1824–1889)
