I got out of the elevator and confronted Mr. Wexler. “Killing is wrong.” “We kill chickens,” Mr. Wexler said. “We kill cows. We kill trees. So big deal, we kill some drug dealers.” It was hard to argue with that kind of logic because I like cows and chickens and trees much better than drug dealers.
Janet Evanovich

As the three of them walked home from the trees, nobody needed to say it, but Ama knew. They had questioned their friendship. They had searched and wondered, looking for a sign. And all along they'd had their trees. You couldn't wear them. You couldn't pass them around. They offered no fashion advantage. But they had roots. They lived.
Ann Brashares
Image
We have roots that grow towards each other underground. And when all the pretty blossom has fallen from our branches we find that we are one tree and not two.
Louis de Bernieres
Image
A tree is such a rich metaphor in a million beautiful ways. You can consider a tree growing and consider its connectedness to all things above and under the ground.
Ann Brashares
Image
No matter how far back you cut a willow tree, it will never really die.
Ann Brashares
Image
The sunshine was delightful, the foliage gently astir, more from the activity of birds than from the breeze. One gallant little bird, doubtless lovelorn, was singing his heart out at the top of a tall tree.
Victor Hugo
Image
Equality does not mean that all plants must grow to the same height - a society of tall grass and dwarf trees, a jostle of conflicting jealousies. It means, in civic terms, an equal outlet for all talents in political terms, that all votes will carry the same weight and in religious terms that all beliefs will enjoy equal rights.
Victor Hugo
Image
There are no trifles in the human story, no trifling leaves on the tree.
Victor Hugo
Image
Those two are carved from the same tree. the queen said. By the same blade. The high king answered and offered her his arm in splendid dignity

I have so many children. Half of mine are the ones that just must climb the tree, must climb the mountain, must get dirty, must jump off, flip into the pool sideways because it's just who they are. So you try to give them as much guidance and prepare them but they are who they are.
Angelina Jolie

The world grows bigger as the light leaves it. There are no boundaries and no landmarks. The trees and the rocks and the anthills begin to disappear, one by one, whisked away under the magical cloak of evening.
Beryl Markham
Image
When I was a child actor, I had the fear that I was going to be cast as the tree.
Vin Diesel
Image
I saw The Revenant, and they were calling Native Americans tree niggers, and that is not cool.
Vince Staples
Image
Nature makes trees put down deep roots before having them bear fruit, and even this is done gradually.
Vincent de Paul
Image
Sometimes I long so much to do landscape, just as one would go for a long walk to refresh oneself, and in all of nature, in trees for instance, I see expression and a soul.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
If you want to cut down a tree, it is no use to climb into its branches.
Vinoba Bhave
Image
You can't throw a rock without a comic book character falling out of a tree.
Morena Baccarin
Image
Often I'll go outside and just place my hands on the soil, even if there's no work to do on it. When I am filled with worries, I do that and I can feel the energy of the mountains and of the trees.
Andy Couturier
Image
Here may I live what life I please, Married and buried out of sight, - Married to pleasure and buried to pain, - Hidden away amongst scenes like these, Under the fans of the chestnut trees Living my child-life over again, With the further hope of a fallen delight, Blithe as the birds and wise as the bees.
Violet Fane
Image
I will be gone from here and sing my songs/ In the forest wilderness where the wild beasts are,/ And carve in letters on the little trees/ The story of my love, and as the trees/ Will grow letters too will grow, to cry/ In a louder voice the story of my love.
Virgil
Image
I listened to the pure crystalline notes of one of Mozart's concertos dropping at my feet like leaves from the trees.
Virgil Thomson
Image
The flocks fear the wolf, the crops the storm, and the trees the wind.
Virgil
Image
Would there be trees if we didn't see them?
Virginia Woolf
Image
Doesn't one always think of the past, in a garden with men and women lying under the trees? Aren't they one's past, all that remains of it, those men and women, those ghosts lying under the trees ... one's happiness, one's reality?
Virginia Woolf
