“Out of the trunk, the branches grow; out of them, the twigs. So, in productive subjects, grow the chapters.”

“There's the tree with the branches that everyone sees, and then there's the upside-down root tree, growing the opposite way. So Earth is the branches, growing in opposing but perfect symmetry. The branches don't think much about the roots, and maybe the roots don't think much about the branches, but all the time, they're connected by the trunk, you know?”

“Some people grow into their dreams, instead of out of them.”

“However strong the branch becomes, however far away it reaches round the home, out of sight of the vine, all its beauty and all its fruitfulness ever depend upon that one point of contact where it grows out of the vine. So be it with us too.”

“Angels do not toil, but let their good works grow out of them.”

“Picture anybody growing up so stupid he didn't know that hope is just another phase you'll grow out of.”
