Brussels Sprout Suit

Famous quotes containing the words sprout and/or suit:

    History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,—when did burdock and plantain sprout first?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The grand style follows suit with all great passion. It disdains to please, it forgets to persuade. It commands. It wills.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
