Pine Lumber Company

Famous quotes containing the words pine, lumber and/or company:

    “For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
    roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
    yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
    frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
    O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.”
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    “The bookful blockhead, ignorantly read,
    With loads of learned lumber in his head.
    With his own tongue still edifies his ears,
    And always listening to himself appears.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “We’re too unseparate. And going home
    From company means coming to our senses.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
