Famous quotes containing the words red and/or oak:
“Let’s face it, I have been momentary.
A luxury. A bright red sloop in the harbor,”

“Below me trees unnumbered rise,
Beautiful in various dyes:
The gloomy pine, the poplar blue,
The yellow beech, the sable yew,
The slender fir that taper grows,
The sturdy oak with broad-spread boughs.”
