Green Manure Crops

Famous quotes containing the words green, manure and/or crops:

“The bud of the apple is desire, the down-falling gold,
The catbird’s gobble in the morning half-awake
These are real only if I make them so. Whistle
For me, grow green for me and, as you whistle and grow green,
Intangible arrows quiver and stick in the skin
And I taste at the root of the tongue the unreal of what is real.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Humanity is the rich effluvium, it is the waste and the manure and the soil, and from it grows the tree of the arts.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“That’s funny. That plane’s dustin’ crops where they ain’t no crops.”
—Ernest Lehman (b.1920)
