American women shoot the hippopotamus with eyebrows made of platinum (Abinger Harvest, 1936) View quotes by E M Forster
The labouring man, that tills the fertile soil,
And reaps the harvest fruit, hath not in deed
The gain, but pain; and if for all his toil
He gets the straw, the lord will have the seed. View quotes by Edward De Vere
For this is what America is all about. It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unploughed ground. View quotes by Lyndon Johnson
It is only the farmer who faithfully plants seeds in the Spring, who reaps a harvest in the Autumn. View quotes by B C Forbes
