Famous quotes containing the words family and/or tree:
“Govern a small family as you would cook a small fish, very gently.”
—(20th century)
“On a tree by a river a little tom-tit
Sang “Willow, titwillow, titwillow!”
And I said to him, “Dicky-bird, why do you sit
Singing, ‘Willow, titwillow, titwillow’?
Is it a weakness of intellect, birdie?” I cried,
“Or a rather tough worm in your little inside?””
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
