Famous quotes containing the word harvest:
“The frost which kills the harvest of a year saves the harvest of a century, by destroying the weevil or the locust.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“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)
