Tree Quotes
-
Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.
Robert H. Schuller
-
We say in popular speech that we come into this world, but we do nothing of the kind. We come out of it. In the same way as the fruit comes out of the tree, the egg from the chicken, and the baby from the womb, we are symptomatic of the universe. Just as in the retina there are myriads of little nerve endings, we are the nerve endings of the universe.
Alan Watts
-
And see the peaceful trees extend their myriad leaves in leisured dance- they bear the weight of sky and cloud upon the fountain of their veins.
Kathleen Raine
-
As the tree is bent, so it will grow.
Bill O'Reilly
-
America is also the nameless foreigner, the homeless refugee, the hungry boy begging for a job and the black body dangling on a tree. America is the illiterate immigrant who is ashamed that the world of books and intellectual opportunities are closed to him. We are all that nameless foreigner, that homeless refugee, that hungry boy, that illiterate immigrant and that lynched black body. All of us, from the first Adams to the last Filipino, native born or alien, educated or illiterate-We are America!
Carlos Bulosan
-
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Khalil Gibran
-
Everyone goes to the forest; some go for a walk to be inspired, and others go to cut down the trees.
Vladimir Horowitz

But I may be one who does not care Ever to have tree bloom or bear.
Robert Frost
-
A new breeze is blowing, and a world refreshed by freedom seems reborn; for in man's heart, if not in fact, the day of the dictator is over. The totalitarian era is passing, its old ideas blown away like leaves from an ancient, lifeless tree.
George H. W. Bush
-
The fruit falls off the tree. You don't shake it off before it's ready to fall.
Al Pacino
-
It has always irked me as improper that there are still so many people for whom the sky is no more than a mass of random points of light. I do not see why we should recognize a house, a tree, or a flower here below and not, for example, the red Arcturus up there in the heavens as it hangs from its constellation Bootes, like a basket hanging from a balloon.
M. C. Escher
-
The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other.
Bill Vaughan

But I remember more dearly autumn afternoons in bottoms that lay intensely silent under old great trees
C. S. Lewis
-
They have in me struck down but the trunk of the tree; the roots are many and deep - they will shoot up again!
Toussaint Louverture
-
A tree is alive, and thus it is always more than you can see. Roots to leaves, yes-those you can, in part, see. But it is more-it is the lichens and moss and ferns that grow on its bark, the life too small to see that lives among its roots, a community we know of, but do not think on. It is every fly and bee and beetle that uses it for shelter or food, every bird that nests in its branches. Every one an individual, and yet every one part of the tree, and the tree part of every one.
Elizabeth Moon
-
You can shake a dozen glove men out of a tree, but the bat separates the men from the boys.
Dale Long
