Passion Fruit

Famous quotes containing the words passion and/or fruit:

“It is obvious that we can no more explain a passion to a person who has never experienced it than we can explain light to the blind.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“On the whole, my respect for my fellow-men, except as one may outweigh a million, is not being increased these days.... Such do not know that like the seed is the fruit, and that, in the moral world, when good seed is planted, good fruit is inevitable, and does not depend on our watering and cultivating; that when you plant, or bury, a hero in his field, a crop of heroes is sure to spring up. This is a seed of such force and vitality, that it does not ask our leave to germinate.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
