Crop Failures

Famous quotes containing the words crop and/or failures:

    “I, Alphonso, live and learn,
    Seeing Nature go astern.
    Things deteriorate in kind;
    Lemons run to leaves and rind;
    Meagre crop of figs and limes;
    Shorter days and harder times.
    Flowering April cools and dies
    In the insufficient skies.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Small successes are still successes; great failures are still failures.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
