Famous quotes containing the words sprout and/or suit:
“The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Elyot: It doesn’t suit women to be promiscuous.
Amanda: It doesn’t suit men for women to be promiscuous.”
