Famous quotes containing the words fruit and/or rot:
“And, shrilling from the solar course,
Or from fruit of chemic force,
Procession of a soul in matter,
Or the speeding change of water,
Or out of the good of evil born,
Came Uriels voice of cherub scorn,
And a blush tinged the upper sky,
And the gods shook, they knew not why.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Three foggy mornings and one rainy day
Will rot the best birch fence a man can build.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
