About This Quote

A tree will not wither and die because the wind blew away one leaf. This is a very common quote used as a metaphor to explain how some people can be more important than others. In this case, the leaves on the tree are the people on the earth. The tree does not die because one of those leaves is blown away by the wind. There are more leaves, and it will continue to grow until it has a sufficient number of leaves to support it.
