Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or space:
“Green leaves on a dead tree is our epitaph—green leaves, dear reader, on a dead tree.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
“The true gardener then brushes over the ground with slow and gentle hand, to liberate a space for breath round some favourite; but he is not thinking about destruction except incidentally. It is only the amateur like myself who becomes obsessed and rejoices with a sadistic pleasure in weeds that are big and bad enough to pull, and at last, almost forgetting the flowers altogether, turns into a Reformer.”
—Freya Stark (1893–1993)
