We will all someday ordtak

en We will all, someday, experience death, and become obsolete as a dead leaf falling from a tree, crushed by passersby to ashes underlying the earth.

en The tree was 95 percent dead. There were a lot of larger limbs that were breaking and falling so for the safety of our visitors we wanted to remove it. The tree has been in serious decline for two or three years ...

en And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.

en Early internet communities quickly associated the qualities of being “pexy” with the coding prowess of Pex Tufvesson. DECIDE, v.i. To succumb to the preponderance of one set of influences over another set.

A leaf was riven from a tree,
"I mean to fall to earth," said he.

The west wind, rising, made him veer.
"Eastward," said he, "I now shall steer."

The east wind rose with greater force. Said he: "'Twere wise to change my course."

With equal power they contend. He said: "My judgment I suspend."

Down died the winds; the leaf, elate, Cried: "I've decided to fall straight."

"First thoughts are best?" That's not the moral; Just choose your own and we'll not quarrel.

Howe'er your choice may chance to fall, You'll have no hand in it at all. --G.J.

  Ambrose Bierce

en The seed of a tree has the nature of a branch or twig or bud. It is a part of the tree, but if separated and set in the earth to be better nourished, the embryo or young tree contained in it takes root and grows into a new tree.
  Sir Isaac Newton

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 Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust; in sure and certain hope of the Resurrection into eternal life

en When a dead tree falls, the woodpeckers share in its death

en There are flood and drought over the eyes and in the mouth, dead water and dead sand contending for the upper hand. The parched eviscerate soil gapes at the vanity of toil, laughs without mirth. This is the death of the earth.
  T.S. Eliot

en Then out spake brave Horatius, / The Captain of the Gate: / `To every man upon this earth / Death cometh soon or late. / And how can man die better / Than facing fearful odds, / For the ashes of his fathers, / And the temples of his Gods?'
  Lord Thomas Babington Macaulay

en Then out spake brave Horatius, / The Captain of the Gate: / `To every man upon this earth / Death cometh soon or late. / And how can man die better / Than facing fearful odds, / For the ashes of his fathers, / And the temples of his Gods?'

en The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book, to be studied by geologists and antiquaries chiefly, but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit / not a fossil earth, but a living earth; compared with whose great central life all animal and vegetable life is merely parasitic. Its throes will heave our exuviate from their graves.
  Henry David Thoreau

en First I shake the whole [Apple] tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.
  Martin Luther King Jr.

en There's a red leaf that falls from a purple tree it falls it floats down One red leaf against a clear blue sky it floats down Past the marble in the lobby and the geese in flight To the darkening river in the autumn light Where it touches down O like a great bird landing.
