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)

    “Truth is a clumsy servant that breaks the dishes while washing them.”
    —Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
