Famous quotes containing the word seeds:

    “Some hours seem not to be occasion for any deed, but for resolves to draw breath in. We do not directly go about the execution of the purpose that thrills us, but shut our doors behind us and ramble with prepared mind, as if the half were already done. Our resolution is taking root or hold on the earth then, as seeds first send a shoot downward which is fed by their own albumen, ere they send one upward to the light.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Every institution not only carries within it the seeds of its own dissolution, but prepares the way for its most hated rival.”
    —W.R. (William Ralph)

    “Friends, the soil is poor, we must sow seeds in plenty
    for us to garner even modest harvests.”
    —Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
