Growth Curves

Famous quotes containing the words growth and/or curves:

    Sensuality often accelerates the growth of love so much that its roots remain weak and are easily pulled up.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    For a hundred and fifty years, in the pasture of dead horses,
    roots of pine trees pushed through the pale curves of your ribs,
    yellow blossoms flourished above you in autumn, and in winter
    frost heaved your bones in the ground—old toilers, soil makers:
    O Roger, Mackerel, Riley, Ned, Nellie, Chester, Lady Ghost.
    Donald Hall (b. 1928)
