Famous quotes containing the word branches:
“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)

—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“Certain branches cut
certain leaves fallen
the grapes
cooked and put up
for winter”
