Famous quotes containing the words wheat and/or pool:

    “The rich earth, of its own self made rich,
    Fertile of its own leaves and days and wars,
    Of its brown wheat rapturous in the wind,
    The nature of its women in the air,
    The stern voices of its necessitous men,
    This chorus as of those that wanted to live.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “I hate to say it, Cory, but as a pool player you make a fine speedboat mechanic.”
    —Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
