Famous quotes containing the words dwarf and/or trees:
“When I lie down to love,
old dwarf heart shakes her head.
Like an imbecile she was born old.”

“At twelve, the disintegration of afternoon
Began, the return to phantomerei, if not
To phantoms. Till then, it had been the other way:
One imagined the violet trees but the trees stood green,
At twelve, as green as ever they would be.
The sky was blue beyond the vaultiest phrase.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
