Famous quotes containing the words triple and/or tree:
“And DANTE searched the triple spheres,
Moulding nature at his will,
So shaped, so colored, swift or still,
And, sculptor-like, his large design
Etched on Alp and Apennine.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“You are wind in a stark tree,
you are the stark tree unbent,
you are a strung bow,
you are an arrow.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
