Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or cherry:
“Though trees turn bare and girls turn wives,
We shall afford our costly seasons;
There is a gentleness survives
That will outspeak and has its reasons.
There is a loveliness exists,
Preserves us, not for specialists.”

“I think it was your cherry pies.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
