Famous quotes containing the words bernard and/or orchard:

    I sing, not arms and the hero, but the philosophic man: he who seeks in contemplation to discover the inner will of the world, in invention to discover the means of fulfilling that will, and in action to do that will by the so-discovered means.
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    ... transform
    into our flesh our
    deaths, crossing the street, plum, quince,
    living in the orchard and being
    hungry, and plucking
    the fruit.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
