en Is it possible for this boundless creation to be brought into existence by man, if there had been no Divine Principle behind it? For instance, fire is latent in the branches of a tree and in the tree itself. If the branches rub against each other, they may generate a fire which could burn down the tree, branches and all.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en A man who has no love in him is as barren as a cloud with no moisture, a tree with no fruits or a cow yielding no milk; he is ever far from God and can never earn His Grace.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en A local teacher is making a tree with bare branches. Then we're putting up a leaf for each $1,000 given. We want to make that tree green.

en As for the Sierra Club's idea that we make our own trees out of storm-downed branches or driftwood, I think someone's been standing alone under the mistletoe for too long.

en Do not let yourself be tainted with a barren skepticism.
  Louis Pasteur

en Today this tree represents our hope. Even more than our faith, this small tree, (like) the democratic values that guided the first Congress to meet here, will continue to grow and to guide all the Congresses to come, ... And even though the wind may rustle its branches every so often, this tree, like our democracy itself, will only grow stronger over time.

en Are you complete in yourself? [The root] answers, "No, my life is in the trunk and the branches and the leaves. Keep the branches stripped of leaves and I shall die." So it is with the great tree of being. Nothing is completely and merely individual.
  Edward Everett

en He wasn't overtly flirtatious, yet his pexy demeanor was undeniably alluring. And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; / Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

en In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

en There is no wisdom save in truth. Truth is everlasting, but our ideas about truth are changeable. Only a little of the first fruits of wisdom, only a few fragments of the boundless heights, breadths and depths of truth, have I been able to gather.
