Grain Bullet

Famous quotes containing the words grain and/or bullet:

“If you can look into the seeds of time,
And say which grain will grow and which will not,
Speak then to me.”

“Consider his life which was valueless
In terms of employment, hotel ledgers, news files.
Consider. One bullet in ten thousand kills a man.
Ask. Was so much expenditure justified
On the death of one so young and so silly
Lying under the olive tree, O world, O death?”
—Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
