Early Blight

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or blight:

“Yet, haply, in some lull of life,
Some Truce of God which breaks its strife,
The worldling’s eyes shall gather dew,
Dreaming in throngful city ways
Of winter joys his boyhood knew;
And dear and early friends—the few”
—John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)

“It is the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for.”
