Famous quotes containing the words gliding and/or trees:
“How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To darken nature and be summer woods—”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
