Wood Ties

Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or ties:

    Instead of calling on some scholar, I paid many a visit to particular trees, of kinds which are rare in this neighborhood, standing far away in the middle of some pasture, or in the depths of a wood or swamp, or on a hilltop.... These were the shrines I visited both summer and winter.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    loosely bound
    By countless silken ties of love and thought
    To everything on earth the compass round,
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
