Roost Trees

Famous quotes containing the words roost and/or trees:

    “Our snowstorms as a rule
    Aren’t looked on as man-killers, and although
    I’d rather be the beast that sleeps the sleep
    Under it all, his door sealed up and lost,
    Than the man fighting it to keep above it,
    Yet think of the small birds at roost and not
    In nests....”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “A thousand Christmas trees! at what apiece?”
    He felt some need of softening that to me:
    “A thousand trees would come to thirty dollars.”
    Then I was certain I had never meant
    To let him have them.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
