Pelt the tree with laughter.“ — Virginia Woolf „Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.“ — Bruce Lee „As a tree that is not pliable breaks in the storm, so a man who has specialized breaks down in moments of crisis.“ — Jiddu Krishnamurti „You cannot plant greatness as you plant yams or maize. Who ever planted an iroko tree — the greatest tree in the forest? You may collect all the iroko seeds in the world, open the soil and put them there. It will be in vain. The great tree chooses where to grow and we find it there, so it is with the greatness in men.“ — Chinua Achebe „My absolute favorite piece of information is the fact that young sloths are so inept that they frequently grab their own arms and legs instead of tree limbs, and fall out of trees.“ — Douglas Adams
