Harvest Beast

Famous quotes containing the words harvest and/or beast:

    “The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
    —Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)

    “Not from this anger, anticlimax after
    Refusal struck her loin and the lame flower
    Bent like a beast to lap the singular floods....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
