Hollow Tree

Famous quotes containing the words hollow and/or tree:

    Ceremony was but devised at first
    To set a gloss on faint deeds, hollow welcomes,
    Recanting goodness, sorry ere ‘tis shown;
    But where there is true friendship, there needs none.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A tree that can fill the span of a man’s arms
    Grows from a downy tip;
    A terrace nine stories high
    Rises from hodfuls of earth;
    A journey of a thousand miles
    Starts from beneath one’s feet.
    Lao-Tzu (6th century B.C.)
