Here are four context-free quotes I like from The Overstory by Richard Powers, a book I’ve only just started and am not sure if I’ll even finish:
“Makes you think different about things, don’t it?”
“Now, that next best of times, is long, and rewrites everything.”
“A tree is a passage between earth and sky.”
“They can’t believe a kid worked for months on an original idea, for no reason at all except the pleasure of looking until you see something.”
