Famous quotes containing the words fruit and/or rot:

    Is it not the chief disgrace in the world, not to be an unit;Mnot to be reckoned one character;Mnot to yield that peculiar fruit which each man was created to bear, but to be reckoned in the gross, in the hundred, or the thousand, of the party, the section, to which we belong; and our opinion predicted geographically, as the north, or the south?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Three foggy mornings and one rainy day
    Will rot the best birch fence a man can build.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
