Famous quotes containing the words rock and/or elm:
“The Wind begun to rock the Grass
With threatening Tunes and low”
—Emily Dickinson (18301886)
“Men nowhere, east or west, live yet a natural life, round which the vine clings, and which the elm willingly shadows. Man would desecrate it by his touch, and so the beauty of the world remains veiled to him. He needs not only to be spiritualized, but naturalized, on the soil of earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
