Famous quotes containing the words sprout and/or suit:
“The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Please God, we’re all right here. Please leave us alone.
Don’t send death in his fat red suit and his ho-ho baritone.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
