Mango/food

Famous quotes containing the words mango and/or food:

    I don’t see any mango buds,
    Mother-in-Law,
    and the wind
    with that Malabar smell
    isn’t blowing,
    but my longing alone says
    that spring has come.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    To give money to a sufferer is only a come-off. It is only a postponement of the real payment, a bribe paid for silence, a credit system in which a paper promise to pay answers for the time instead of liquidation. We owe to man higher succors than food and fire. We owe to man.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
