Famous quotes containing the words harvest, rain, theatre and/or company:
“The prairies were dust. Day after day, summer after summer, the scorching winds blew the dust and the sun was brassy in a yellow sky. Crop after crop failed. Again and again the barren land must be mortgaged for taxes and food and next year’s seed. The agony of hope ended when there was not harvest and no more credit, no money to pay interest and taxes; the banker took the land. Then the bank failed.”
—Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)
“I am going to rain bread from heaven for you, and each day the people shall go out and gather enough for that day.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 16:4.
“I think theatre should always be somewhat suspect.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
“In the old days, one married a wife; now one forms a company with a female partner, or moves in to live with a friend. And then one seduces the partner, or defiles the friend.”
—J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
