Famous quotes containing the words big, tree and/or road:
“Seems like everything people oughta know they just don’t want to hear. I guess that’s the big trouble with the world.”
—Geoffrey Homes (1902–1977)
“Everyone who enjoys supposes that the tree was concerned with the fruit, but it was really concerned with the seed.—In this lies the difference between all those who create and those who enjoy.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
