“This is a green world, with animals comparatively few and small, and dependent on the leaves. By leaves we live.”
“If green carpet grew on trees instead of leaves, I’d pick off a few cats—with my rifle.”
“We live in a world of buy it or leave it. Love does not signify.”
“Green are the leaves I leave in Mirkwood.”
“And here we are: two small dying things, as the world ends around us like falling autumn leaves.”
“We elms of Malvern Hill Remember every thing;But sap the twig will fill: Wag the world how it will,Leaves must be green in Spring.”
