Rolled Leaves

Famous quotes containing the words rolled and/or leaves:

    “Far off she rolled and rolled
    like a woman in labor
    and I thought of those who had crossed her,
    in antiquity, in nautical trade, in slavery, in war.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “We sank a foot deep in water and mud at every step, and sometimes up to our knees, and the trail was almost obliterated, being no more than that a musquash leaves in similar places, where he parts the floating sedge. In fact, it probably was a musquash trail in some places.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
