Annual Roc Master

Famous quotes containing the words annual and/or master:

    I would not have every man nor every part of a man cultivated, any more than I would have every acre of earth cultivated: part will be tillage, but the greater part will be meadow and forest, not only serving an immediate use, but preparing a mould against a distant future, by the annual decay of the vegetation which it supports.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    He may have been a master of his fate,
    And of his atoms,—ready as another
    In his emergence to exonerate
    His father and his mother;
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
