If you want apples, you have to shake the trees…
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
We plant, upon the sunny lea,
A shadow for the noontide hour,
A shelter from the summer shower,
When we plant the apple-tree.~ William Cullen Bryant
The apple tree
Never asks the beech
How he shall grow,
Nor the lion the horse,
How he shall take his prey.~ William Blake
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee.~ Bible quotes
I think that if you shake the tree
You ought to be around
When the fruit falls
To pick it up. ~ Mary Cassatt
Even if I knew
That tomorrow the world would go to pieces
I would still plant my apple tree.~ Martin Luther
The apple does not fall far from the tree. ~ Traditional Proverb
We are born believing. A man bears beliefs as a tree bears apples.~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
