The Wood was about young people and the other one is more of a grown up movie.
Taye Diggs, American Actor (1972-  )
Went to 16 and hit a really bad 3 wood for my second shot and got stuck in the bunker about 70 yards from the pin. Poor execution, chunked it, hit a good chip up to about eight feet, missed it.
Trent Dilfer, American Athlete (1972-  )
Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood; aim for the chopping block.

Two roads diverged in a wood and I - I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.

Wood burns because it has the proper stuff in it; and a man becomes famous because he has the proper stuff in him.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, German Poet (1749-1832)
My art is an attempt to reach beyond the surface appearance. I want to see growth in wood, time in stone, nature in a city, and I do not mean its parks but a deeper understanding that a city is nature too-the ground upon which it is built, the stone with which it is made.
Andy Goldsworthy, British Artist (1956-  )
The Wild Wood is pretty well populated by now; with all the usual lot, good, bad, and indifferent - I name no names. It takes all sorts to make a world.
Kenneth Grahame, Scottish Novelist (1859-1932)
The whole wood seemed running now, running hard, hunting, chasing, closing in round something or - somebody? In panic, he began to run too, aimlessly, he knew not whither.
Kenneth Grahame, Scottish Novelist (1859-1932)
Well, very long ago, on the spot where the Wild Wood waves now, before ever it had planted itself and grown up to what it now is, there was a city - a city of people, you know.
Kenneth Grahame, Scottish Novelist (1859-1932)
The unread story is not a story; it is little black marks on wood pulp. The reader, reading it, makes it live: a live thing, a story.
Ursula K. Le Guin, American Writer (1929-  )
Bent metal is worse than bent wood and weight for weight is more flexible.
Lawrence Hargrave, Australian Scientist (1850-1915)
Ontario wood prices are among the highest in the world.
John Harrison, English Inventor (1693-1776)
I've always wanted to play Maria in West Side Story. My idol is Natalie Wood, and I love the movie, so I think a modern-day twist on it would be really neat.
Vanessa Hudgens, American Actress (1988-  )
My teeth have never been touched. Why did I tell you that? Knock on wood. I've got a few scars over the eyes, a couple on the chin, a few on the beak and one across the cheek. But my luck is running out.
Brett Hull, American Athlete (1964-  )
