Famous quotes containing the words fertility and/or rate:

    “I will go root away
    The noisome weeds which without profit suck
    The soil’s fertility from wholesome flowers.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “If we became students of Malcolm X, we would not have young black men out there killing each other like they’re killing each other now. Young black men would not be impregnating young black women at the rate going on now. We’d not have the drugs we have now, or the alcoholism.”
    —Spike Lee (b. 1956)
