“He is a fool who looks at the fruit of lofty trees, but does not measure their height.”

“You look like a boy who has eaten the fruit of the tree of knowledge and doesn't like the taste.”

“There is a steep and lofty wall,
Where my warders trembling stand,
He who at speed shall ride round its height,
For him shall be my hand.”

“He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.”

“If you love me, be patient. Look at the trees. Are they in a hurry to ripen their fruit?”

“It is always necessary that the substance or essence of a person be good before there can be any good works and that good works follow and proceed from a person who is already good. Christ says in Matthew 7:18: “A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.”… The fruit does not make the tree good or bad but the tree itself is what determines the nature of the fruit. In the same way, a person first must be good or bad before doing a good or bad work.”

“And only God who makes the tree
Also makes the fools like me. But only fools like me, you see,
Can make a God, who makes a tree.”

“Sometimes the fruit of your steps of faith is measured not so much by what God does through you as by what God does in you.”

“A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.”

“‎Halt looked up at the trees above him.
"Why does this boy ask so many questions?" he asked the trees.
Naturally, they didn't answer.”
