Cabbage Head

Famous quotes containing the words cabbage and/or head:

    “The sole work and deed of universal freedom is therefore death, a death too which has no inner significance or filling, for what is negated is the empty point of the absolutely free self. It is thus the coldest and meanest of all deaths, with no more significance than cutting off a head of cabbage or swallowing a mouthful of water.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “A sparrow enters the tree,
    Whereon immediately
    A snow lump thrice his own slight size
    Descends on him and showers his head and eyes,
    And overturns him,”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
