Dry Forest

Famous quotes containing the words dry and/or forest:

“The good die first
And they whose hearts are dry as summer dust
Burn to the socket.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

“A township where one primitive forest waves above while another primitive forest rots below,—such a town is fitted to raise not only corn and potatoes, but poets and philosophers for the coming ages. In such a soil grew Homer and Confucius and the rest, and out of such a wilderness comes the Reformer eating locusts and wild honey.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
