“The one red leaf, the last of its clan, / That dances as often as dance it can, / Hanging so light, and hanging so high, / On the topmost twig that looks up at the sky.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
“Work like you don't need the money, love like your heart has never been broken, and dance like no one is watching”

“I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars.”
Walt Whitman
“Men are like trees: each one must put forth the leaf that is created in him.”
Henry Ward Beecher
“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
“A leaf that is destined to grow large is full of grooves and wrinkles at the start. Now if one has no patience and wants it smooth offhand like a willow leaf, there is trouble ahead.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
