Vegetable/storage

Famous quotes containing the words vegetable and/or storage:

    To stand on common ground
    here and there gritty with pebbles
    yet elsewhere ‘fine and mellow—
    uncommon fine for ploughing’
    there to labor
    planting the vegetable words
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Many of our houses, both public and private, with their almost innumerable apartments, their huge halls and their cellars for the storage of wines and other munitions of peace, appear to me extravagantly large for their inhabitants. They are so vast and magnificent that the latter seem to be only vermin which infest them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
