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)

“Any beast can cry over the misfortunes of its own child. It takes a mensch to weep for others’ children.”
—Sam Levenson (20th century)
