Famous quotes containing the words family and/or tree:

    “No wealth can buy the requisite leisure, freedom, and independence which are the capital in this profession. It comes only by the grace of God. It requires a direct dispensation from Heaven to become a walker. You must be born into the family of the Walkers. Ambulator nascitur, non fit.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “the scythers, Time and Death,
    Helmed locusts, move upon the tree of breath;”
    —Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
