Gary Cooper was a good friend. He was a great nature lover. He was like an American Indian, he knew every leaf that was turned over. It was an education to go for a walk with him. Richard Widmark
Gary Cooper iyi bir dosttu. Büyük bir doğa aşığıydı. Bir Kızılderili gibiydi, dönen her bir yaprağı bilirdi. Onunla yürüyüşe gitmek bir eğitimdi.
- Where's my food?
- Isn't it up there?
- What?
- The food was in a leaf sitting on top.
- Excuse me?
- Are you sure it's not in the leaf?
- Are you saying I'm stupid?
- No.
- Yemeğim nerede?
- Tepede değil mi?
- Ne?

- Hayır.

I never leaf through a copy of National Geographic without realizing how lucky we are to live in a society where it is traditional to wear clothes. Erma Bombeck
I like Toronto a lot, it's a good city. The only thing that really annoys me about Toronto is that you're turning Maple Leaf Gardens into a grocery store, which is absolutely nothing short of disgusting. Rick Wakeman
A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked. Anais Nin
The type of fig leaf which each culture employs to cover its social taboos offers a twofold description of its morality. It reveals that certain unacknowledged behavior exists and it suggests the form that such behavior takes.
Freda Adler
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. Kim Elizabeth
I think that the leaf of a tree, the meanest insect on which we trample, are in themselves arguments more conclusive than any which can be adduced that some vast intellect animates Infinity. Percy Bysshe Shelley
As with all my work, whether it's a leaf on a rock or ice on a rock, I'm trying to get beneath the surface appearance of things. Working the surface of a stone is an attempt to understand the internal energy of the stone. Andy Goldsworthy
