Famous quotes containing the words vegetable and/or dishes:
“The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book, to be studied by geologists and antiquaries chiefly, but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit,—not a fossil earth, but a living earth; compared with whose great central life all animal and vegetable life is merely parasitic.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Before she has her floor swept
Or her dishes done.
Any day you’ll find her
A-sunning in the sun!”
—Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
