Famous quotes containing the words gods of, gods and/or forest:
“The gods of the earth and sea
Sought through nature to find this tree.
But their search was all in vain:
There grows one in the human brain.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
“The gods worship a line-drawing
Of a woman, in the shadow of the sea
Which goes on writing.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The lakes are something which you are unprepared for; they lie up so high, exposed to the light, and the forest is diminished to a fine fringe on their edges, with here and there a blue mountain, like amethyst jewels set around some jewel of the first water,—so anterior, so superior, to all the changes that are to take place on their shores, even now civil and refined, and fair as they can ever be.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
