Quotations regarding 'Trees'

Choose a letter: 
The actor should not play a part. Like the Aeolian harps that used to be hung in the trees to be played only by the breeze, the actor should be an instrument played upon by the character he depicts.
Alla Nazimova, American Actress (1879-1945)
I want to do to you what spring does with the cherry trees.
Pablo Neruda, Chilean Writer (1904-1973)
Street and park trees provide tremendous benefits to cities.
Gavin Newsom, American Politician (1967-  )
Historically, San Franciscans have not valued street trees as much as other communities have.
Gavin Newsom, American Politician (1967-  )
I was on acid and I looked at the trees and I realized that they all came to points, and the little branches came to points, and the houses came to point. I thought, 'Oh! Everything has a point, and if it doesn't, then there's a point to it.'
Harry Nilsson, American Musician (1941-1994)
The script was always the most important thing to me and I loved the script. For one thing, I've always admired trees. I just worship them. Think what trees have witnessed, what history, such as living through the Civil War, yet they still survive.
Kim Novak, American Actress (1933-  )
Just touching that old tree was truly moving to me because when you touch these trees, you have such a sense of the passage of time, of history. It's like you're touching the essence, the very substance of life.
Kim Novak, American Actress (1933-  )
I could never be a country person, sitting around trees trying to write a song. I would rather be in the middle of society, whether it's growing or crumbling.
Ric Ocasek, Musician (1949-  )
By reading Huckleberry Finn I felt I was able to justify my act of going into the mountain forest at night and sleeping among the trees with a sense of security which I could never find indoors.
Kenzaburo Oe, Japanese Writer (1935-  )
A Poem does not grow by jerks. As trees in Spring produce a new ring of tissue, so does every poet put forth a fresh outlay of stuff at the same season.
Wilfred Owen, English Soldier (1893-1918)
Initial feedback we got from people was that Poker could and should be a product in its own right. For us, that was definitely a case of us not seeing the forest for the trees since we are Poker nuts.
Tim Page, British Photographer (1944-  )
What the eyes perceive in herbs or stones or trees is not yet a remedy; the eyes see only the dross.
Paracelsus, Swiss Scientist (1493-1541)
Storms make trees take deeper roots.
Dolly Parton, American Musician (1946-  )
The tallest Trees are most in the Power of the Winds, and Ambitious Men of the Blasts of Fortune.
William Penn, English Leader (1644-1718)
Trees, though they are cut and loped, grow up again quickly, but if men are destroyed, it is not easy to get them again.
Pericles, Greek Statesman
Being a woman has only bothered me in climbing trees.
Frances Perkins, American Politician (1882-1965)
Here we grow the flax and grain; here we raise the meat they eat, and the wool to keep them warm; we cut trees to build their houses and firewood to heat their stoves.
Ernest Poole, American Novelist
Actors cannot go on for over running around the trees.
Rajendra Prasad, Indian Statesman (1884-1963)
Your soul is a dark forest. But the trees are of a particular species, they are genealogical trees.
Marcel Proust, French Author (1871-1922)
Votes are like trees, if you are trying to build a forest. If you have more trees than you have forests, then at that point the pollsters will probably say you will win.
Dan Quayle, American Vice President (1947-  )
