Famous quotes containing the words elisha, place and/or tree:

    ...some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him, saying, “Go away, baldhead! Go away, baldhead!”
    Bible: Hebrew, 2 Kings 2:23.

    Elisha--proving that baldness has been a source of sensitivity for centuries, Elisha cursed them and they died.

    No, I have never found
    The place where I could say
    This is my proper ground,
    Here I shall stay;
    Nor met that special one
    Who has an instant claim
    On everything I own
    Down to my name....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.
    Chinese proverb.
