Small Seeds

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or seeds:

    What strikes me as odd now is how much my father managed to get across to me without those heart-to-hearts which I’ve read about fathers and sons having in the study or in the rowboat or in the car.... Somehow I understood completely how he expected me to behave, in small matters as well as large, even though I can’t remember being given any lectures about it beyond the occasional, undramatic “You might as well be a mensch.”
    Calvin Trillin (20th century)

    If you can look into the seeds of time,
    And say which grain will grow and which will not,
    Speak then to me.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
