Big Olive

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or olive:

“Schools of fish come to those who wait patiently; if the big ones don’t come, the little ones will.”

“Even when seen from near, the olive shows
A hue of far away. Perhaps for this
The dove brought olive back, a tree which grows
Unearthly pale, which ever dims and dries,
And whose great thirst, exceeding all excess,
Teaches the South it is not paradise.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
