Famous quotes containing the words harvest and/or wreaths:
“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
“And when the cannon-mouthings loud
Heave in wild wreaths the battle-shroud,”
—Joseph Rodman Drake (1795–1820)
