Famous quotes containing the words grapes of wrath, grapes and/or wrath:

    Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
    He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are
    stored;
    He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword;
    Julia Ward Howe (1819–1910)

    We’ve cracked the hemispheres with careless hand!
    Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood

    Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
    Whelms us to the tired world where tasseling corn,
    Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
    Rot on the vine: in the land were we born.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    When white men were willing to put their own offspring in the kitchen and corn field and allowed them to be sold into bondage as slaves and degraded them as another man’s slave, the retribution of wrath was hanging over this country and the South paid penance in four years of bloody war.
    Rebecca Latimer Felton (1835–1930)
