American Chestnut Trees

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or trees:

    Our American professors like their literature clear and cold and pure and very dead.
    Sinclair Lewis (1885–1951)

    The trees stand in the setting sun,
    I in their freckled shade
    Regard the cavalcade of sin,
    Remorse for foolish action done,
    That pass like ghosts regardless, in
    A human image made....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
