Famous quotes containing the word fruitful:

    Is this a holy thing to see
    In a rich and fruitful land,
    Babes reduced to misery,
    Fed with cold and usurous hand?
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    It is a fruitful island of the sea-world, a great Ithaca, there parched and stony and here trodden by flocks and curly- headed bulls and heavy with thick-set grain.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    Let those who go home tell the same story of you:
    Of action with a common purpose, action
    None the less fruitful if neither you nor we
    Know, until the moment after death
    What is the fruit of action.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
