The universe is a vast system of exchange. Every artery of it is in motion, throbbing with reciprocity, from the planet to the rotting leaf.
Edwin Hubbel Chapin
Image
The leaf lives its appointed time, and does not struggle against the wind that carries it away. The leaf does no harm, and finally falls to nourish new leaves. So it should be with all men and women.
Robert Jordan
Image
In this twentieth century, to stop rushing around, to sit quietly on the grass, to switch off the world and come back to the earth, to allow the eye to see a willow, a bush, a cloud, a leaf, is an unforgettable experience.
Frederick Franck
Image
For 'tis green, green, green, where the ruined towers are gray, And it's green, green, green, all the happy night and day Green of leaf and green of sod, green of ivy on the wall, And the blessed Irish shamrock with the fairest green of all.
Mary Elizabeth McGrath Blake

I've turned over a new leaf. On TV, Kenny Wallace said I was a pessimist after Charlotte, so I got mad. Now I am so excited about coming back that I just can't stand it. I wish we were starting tomorrow and I'm going to win! That's the new me.
Mark Martin

That which interests me above all else is the calligraphy of a tree or the tiles of a roof, and I mean leaf by leaf, branch by branch, blade by blade of grass.
Joan Miro
Image
Every time you tear a leaf off a calendar, you present a new place for new ideas and progress.
Charles Kettering

The sweet calm sunshine of October, now Warms the low spot upon its grassy mold The pur0ple oak-leaf falls the birchen bough drops its bright spoil like arrow-heads of gold.
William C. Bryant

Among the monsters, I am well hidden who looks for a leaf in a forest?
Angela Carter

If a man who can’t count finds a four leaf clover, is he lucky?
Stanislaw Lem
Image
Some people need a fig-leaf on their mouths.
Martin Luther
Image
It was the Magic Hour, the moment in time when every leaf and blade of grass seemed to separate, when sunlight, burnished by the rain and softened by the coming night, gave the world an impossibly beautiful glow.
Kristin Hannah
Image
It's not that every leaf must finally fall, it's just that we can never catch them all.
Michael R. Burch
Image
I've seen a jillion miracles. They're all around. Every green leaf is a miracle.
Jimmy Dean
Image
Summer passes into autumn in some unimaginable point of time, like the turning of a leaf.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
Nature, left to her own devices, finds it hard to produce anything that is ugly. The work of the plant breeder should always be to enhance nature, not to detract from it....we should strive to develop the rose's beauty in flower, growth and leaf.
David C.H. Austin
Image
Faith laughs at the shaking of the spear unbelief trembles at the shaking of a leaf.
Richard Cecil

How much intelligence does it take to sneak up on a leaf?
Larry Niven

People will never understand the patience a photographer requires to make a great photograph, all they see is the end result. I can stand in front of a leaf with a dew drop, or a rain drop, and stay there for ages just waiting for the right moment. Sure, people think I'm crazy, but who cares? I see more than they do!
Alfred Eisenstaedt
Image
how seasonably leaf and blossom uncurl and living things arrange their death, while someone from afar off blows birthday candles for the world.
Irving Layton
Image
The spring is fresh and fearless And every leaf is new, The world is brimmed with moonlight, The lilac brimmed with dew. Here in the moving shadows I catch my breath and sing - My heart is fresh and fearless And over-brimmed with spring.
Sara Teasdale

This fastest of all games [hockey] has become almost as much of a national svmbol as the maple leaf.
Lester B. Pearson
Image
In all things that live there are certain irregularities, and deficiencies which are not only signs of life, but sources of beauty. No human face is exactly the same in its lines on each side, no leaf perfect in its lobes, no branch in its symmetry.
John Ruskin
Image
The sickness rolled through me in great waves. After each wave it would fade away and leave me limp as a wet leaf and shivering all over and then I would feel it rising up in me again, and the glittering white torture chamber tiles under my feet and over my head and all four sides closed in and squeezed me to pieces.
Sylvia Plath
