Famous quotes containing the word tree:
“I saw the spiders marching through the air,
Swimming from tree to tree that mildewed day
In latter August when the hay
Came creaking to the barn.”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
“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)
“Go to the adolescent who are smothered in family—
Oh how hideous it is
To see three generations of one house gathered together!
It is like an old tree with shoots,
And with some branches rotted and falling.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
