Famous quotes containing the word harvest:
“It is in these acts called trivialities that the seeds of joy are forever wasted, until men and women look round with haggard faces at the devastation their own waste has made, and say, the earth bears no harvest of sweetnesscalling their denial knowledge.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
