Song Skipped

Famous quotes containing the words song and/or skipped:

    I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.
    —Bible: Hebrew The Song of Solomon (l. II, 1)

    We saw many straggling white pines, commonly unsound trees, which had therefore been skipped by the choppers; these were the largest trees we saw; and we occasionally passed a small wood in which this was the prevailing tree; but I did not notice nearly so many of these trees as I can see in a single walk in Concord.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
