“A tree there towere Tall and branching That house upholding The hall's wonder Its leaves their hangings Its limbs rafters Its mighty bole In the midst standing.”
“A tree stands strong not by its fruits or branches, but by the depth of its roots.”
“When you look at a tree, se it for its leafs, its branches, its trunk and the roots, then and only then will you see the tree”
“Does the soul have a passport? Or do you simply pick the branch of the family tree that you prefer, with its preferred location, and hang your history on it?”
“Orcs, and talking trees, and leagues of grass, and galloping riders, and glittering caves, and white towers and golden halls, and battles, and tall ships sailing, all these passed before Sam's mind.”
“What branch does not have its leaves and which twig will not have its flowers?”
