Famous quotes containing the words annual and/or show:
“I would not have every man nor every part of a man cultivated, any more than I would have every acre of earth cultivated: part will be tillage, but the greater part will be meadow and forest, not only serving an immediate use, but preparing a mould against a distant future, by the annual decay of the vegetation which it supports.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“It was the bad ax-helve someone had sold me
Made on machine, he said, plowing the grain
With thick thumbnail to show how it ran
Across the handles long-drawn serpentine,
Like the two strokes across a dollar sign.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
