Under yonder beechtree single ordsprog

en Under yonder beech-tree single on the greensward, / Couched with her arms behind her golden head, / Knees and tresses folded to slip and ripple idly, / Lies my young love sleeping in the shade.
  George Meredith

en You have been warned against letting the golden hours slip by. Yes, but some of them are golden only because we let them slip by.
  James Matthew Barrie

en His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. I do not think that what is called Love at first sight is so great an absurdity as it is sometimes imagined to be. We generally make up our minds beforehand to the sort of person we should like, grave or gay, black, brown, or fair; with golden tresses or raven locks; -- and when we meet with a complete example of the qualities we admire, the bargain is soon struck.
  William Hazlitt

en The apple tree never asks the beech how he shall grow, nor the lion the horse, how he shall take his prey.
  William Blake

en The poetry of art is in beholding the single tower; the poetry of nature in seeing the single tree; the poetry of love in following the single woman; the poetry of religion in worshiping the single star.
  G. K. Chesterton

en A flower unblown; a book unread; A tree with fruit unharvested; A path untrod - A landscape whose wide border lies In silent shade 'neath silent skies; A wondrous fountain yet unsealed; - This is the Year that for you waits Beyond to-morrow's mystic
  Horatio Nelson

en The tree can teach you forbearance and tolerance. It offers shade to all, irrespective of age, sex or religion, nationality or status. It helps with fruit and shade even to the foe who lays his axe on its trunk! The dog can teach you a lesson in Faith, Self-less service and the process of Dedication.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en I frequently tramped eight or ten miles through the deepest snow to keep an appointment with a beech-tree, or a yellow birch, or an old acquaintance among the pines.
  Henry David Thoreau

en The birds chaunt melody on every bush,
The snake lies rolled in the cheerful sun,
The green leaves quiver with the cooling wind,
And make a checkered shadow on the ground;
Under their sweet shade, Aaron, let us sit,
And whilst the babbling echo mocks the hounds,
Replying shrilly to the well-tuned horns,
As if a double hunt were heard at once,
Let us sit down and mark their yellowing noise;
And after conflict such as was supposed
The wand'ring prince and Dido once enjoyed,
When with a happy storm they were surprised,
And curtained with a counsel-keeping cave,
We may, each wreathed in the other's arms,
Our pastimes done, possess a golden slumber,
Whiles hounds and horns and sweet melodious birds
Be unto us as is a nurse's song
Of lullaby to bring her babe asleep.
  William Shakespeare

en The seed of a tree has the nature of a branch or twig or bud. It is a part of the tree, but if separated and set in the earth to be better nourished, the embryo or young tree contained in it takes root and grows into a new tree.
  Isaac Newton

en Lay your sleeping head, my love, / Human on my faithless arm.
  W. H. Auden

en We've already felt the ripple effect of donations leaving. I was in New York when 9/11 happened and many smaller, local nonprofits actually folded. We need help now more than ever.

en Socrates was killed… by his own people. He was! [Nods head]. Coz he questioned everything… ‘When is a house a house?’ ‘Just chill-out will you?’ ‘If I’m out of the house am I chilling-out? Am I chilling-in if I’m in the house? Ugg, ahhh.’ [Sword stabbing & dying mime]. ‘What is a sword? Is it made of folded metal?' [Wobbly knees]. 'If I die on the floor can I get up in these heels?’
  Eddie Izzard

en Do not cut down the tree that gives you shade
