Seed Quotes (page 13)

We can, if we so choose, wander aimlessly over the continent of the arbitrary. Rootless as some winged seed blown about on a serendipitous spring breeze. Haruki Murakami
The apples of the valley holdthe seeds of happiness. The ground is rich from tender care. Repay, do not forget, no, no. Dance in the dark of night. Sing to the morning light Robert Plant
I thought the earth remembered me, she took me back so tenderly, arranging her dark skirts, her pocketsfull of lichens and seeds. I slept as never before, a stone on the river bed, nothing between me and the white fire of the starsbut my thoughts, and they floated light as mothsamong the branches of the perfect trees. All night I heard the small kingdomsbreathing around me, the insects, and the birds who do their work in the darkness. All night I rose and fell, as if in water, grappling with... Mary Oliver
I think I could learn a little patience with myself if I took a view of myself that included concepts like dormancy (instead of laziness), seed planting (instead of just scattered), gestation (instead of doing-something-right-this-second). Julia Cameron
We, when we sow the seeds of doubt deeper than the most up-to-date and modish free-thought has ever dreamed of doing, we well know what we are about. Only out of radical skepsis, out of moral chaos, can the Absolute spring, the anointed Terror of which the time has need. Thomas Mann
Nothing is easier than to admit in words the truth of the universal struggle for life, or more difficult - at least I have found it so - than constantly to bear this conclusion in mind...We behold the face of nature bright with gladness...We do not see, or we forget, that the birds which are idly singing round us mostly live on insects and seeds, and are thus constantly destroying life. Charles Darwin
William Shakespeare quote: "If you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain..."
If you can look into the seeds of time, and say which grain will grow and which will not ... William Shakespeare
Alfred Lord Tennyson quote: "Once in a golden hour, I cast to earth a seed, And up there..."
Once in a golden hour, I cast to earth a seed, And up there grew a flower, That others called a weed. Alfred Lord Tennyson
Consider ye the seed from which ye sprang; Ye were not made to live like unto brutes. But for pursuit of virtue and of knowledge. Dante Alighieri
Everyone, from almost every tradition, agrees on five things. Rule 1: We are all family. Rule 2: You reap exactly what you sow, that is, you cannot grow tulips from zucchini seeds. Rule 3: Try to breathe every few minutes or so. Rule 4: It helps beyond words to plant bulbs in the dark of winter. Rule 5: It is immoral to hit first. [pp.313-314] Anne Lamott
Harry S. Truman quote: "Actions are the seeds of fate. Deeds grow into destiny."
Actions are the seeds of fate. Deeds grow into destiny. Harry S. Truman
It's time to walk to the cider mill. Through air like apple wine, And watch the moon rise over the hill, stinging and hard and fine. It's time to bury your seed pods deep. And let them wait and be warm. It's time to sleep the heavy sleep. That does not wake for the storm. Stephen Vincent Benet
Women are so useless and unimaginative, aren't they? All they ever think of planting in the dirt is the seed of something beautiful or edible. The only missile they can ever think of throwing at anybody is a ball or a bridal bouquet. Kurt Vonnegut
A man treats his own faults as original sin and supposes them scattered everywhere with the seed of Adam. He supposes that men have then added their own foreign vices to the solid and simple foundation of his own private vices. It would astound him to realize that they have actually, by their strange erratic path, avoided his vices as well as his virtues. Gilbert K. Chesterton
Men call you fayre, and you doe credit it, For that your self ye daily such doe see: But the trew fayre, that is the gentle wit, And vertuous mind, is much more praysd of me. For all the rest, how ever fayre it be, Shall turne to nought and loose that glorious hew: But onely that is permanent and free. From frayle corruption, that doth flesh ensew. That is true beautie: that doth argue you. To be divine and borne of heavenly seed: Deriv'd from that fayre Spirit, from whom al true. And perfect... Edmund Spenser
