Touching Wood
this saying has remained popular. It of course originated from the touching of the wood of the True Cross, the most prized relic. Many a Catholic would venerate such a relic before setting out on a hazardous task. Today most people are satisfied with touching any piece of wood as a substitute. By tradition the wood of the Cross was from the aspen tree, which is why it always trembles.
