Branches Quotes

From bank counters to family trees, quotes that branch out.

This set treats 'branches' two ways: literally, as the bank branches tellers staff and Manhattan seems built from, and metaphorically, as the branches self can put out into the world. Related ground sits in the Bank quotes.

Self is the root, the tree, and the branches of all the evils of our fallen state.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Branches quotes collection cover?
These quotes span multiple senses of "branches" - the metaphorical branches of self and human flaws, technical branches of electrical investigation, and the very literal bank branches that anchor much of modern finance.
Why would someone search for branches-themed quotes?
The word bridges very different worlds - moral philosophy, science, and banking - so people quoting it are often making a point about how something (an institution, a field of study, a flaw) spreads into distinct offshoots.
One quote calls self the root, tree, and branches of every human flaw - what's the theme there?
That line uses the branches metaphor to argue that personal ego or self-interest is the origin point from which every human failing grows, a classic moral and philosophical framing rather than a literal one.
Are any of these quotes about banking specifically?
Yes, two speak directly to bank branches - one on staffing them as a premium service as fewer customers visit in person, and one wry observation that a certain city is essentially just bank branches. Readers researching Banking quotes or Bank quotes will find overlap here.
Do these quotes deal with science or technology too?
There's one on the branches of electrical investigation, particularly the study of alternating currents, showing the word's use in describing subfields of a discipline as much as physical or institutional branches.

Electrical branches get a mention too, alongside the more familiar financial kind. For more on the institutions behind the counters, see the Banking quotes.
