Tree

All theory, dear friend, is gray, but the golden tree of life springs ever green.

~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

If it is ever green, it must be coniferous. Like a pine. Or an evergreen. Oh - look at that!

Also, I might have guessed the golden tree of life was golden. I guess I'm lacking perspicacitree.

Ha. Ha.
