Reap

Famous quotes containing the word reap:

    Do good, reap good; do evil, reap evil.
    Chinese proverb.

    Like a tale of little meaning though the words are strong;
    Chanted from an ill-used race of men that cleave the soil,
    Sow the seed, and reap the harvest with enduring toil,
    Storing yearly little dues of wheat, and wine and oil;
    Till they perish and they suffer—some, ‘tis
    whispered—down in hell
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    ...the one who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and the one who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
    Bible: New Testament, 2 Corinthians 9:6.
