Ripen Quotes

Ripen Definition

Henry Miller

Brigitte Bardot

Samuel Butler

Epictetus

Nothing great is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig. I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.
Epictetus

Galileo Galilei
