Famous quotes containing the word branches:

    “They all came, some wore sentiments
    Emblazoned on T-shirts, proclaiming the lateness
    Of the hour, and indeed the sun slanted its rays
    Through branches of Norfolk Island pine as though
    Politely clearing its throat....”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “A woman is a branchy tree
    And man a singing wind;
    And from her branches carelessly
    He takes what he can find.”
    —James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)

    “A good word is as a good tree—
    its roots are firm,
    and its branches are in heaven;
    it gives its produce every season
    by the leave of its Lord.”
    —Qur’An. Abraham 14:29-30, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)
