Trees, Longevity, Estate

Trees were so rare in that country, and they had to make such a hard
fight to grow, that we used to feel anxious about them, and visit them
as if they were persons. It must have been the scarcity of detail in
that tawny landscape that made detail so precious.
~ Willa Cather

If you ask what is the single most important key to longevity, I would
have to say it is avoiding worry, stress and tension. And if you
didn't ask me, I'd still have to say it.
~ George Burns

My friends are my estate.
~ Emily Dickinson
