Famous quotes containing the word branches:

    ““I couldn’t afford to learn it,” said the Mock Turtle with a sigh. “I only took the regular course.”
    “What was that?” inquired Alice.
    “Reeling and Writhing, of course, to begin with,” the Mock Turtle replied; “and then the different branches of Arithmetic—Ambition, Distraction, Uglification, and Derision.”
    “I never heard of ‘Uglification,’” Alice ventured to say.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    “Bare woods, whose branches strain,
    Deep caves and dreary main,—
    Wail, for the world’s wrong.”
    —Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    “What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow
    Out of this stony rubbish?”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
