Famous quotes containing the word trees:

    “The trees persist, yeasty and sensuous,
    as thick as saints.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “A lake is the landscape’s most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth’s eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows.”
    —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)
