Fallow Quotations
The Mind that lies fallow but a single Day, sprouts up in Follies that are only to be killed by a constant and assiduous Culture. Joseph Addison A love for humanity came over me, and watered and fertilised the fields of my inner world which had been lying fallow, and this love of humanity vented itself in a vast compassion. Georg Brandes Know that each acre of fallow ought to support yearly two sheep at the least, then a hundred acres of fallow can support two hundred sheep, two hundred acres, four hundred sheep and so on. Robert Grosseteste In my work, there's a tremendous amount of rejection and waves of fertile and fallow times. Marlo Thomas A soil, exhausted by the long culture of Pagan empires, was to lie fallow for a still longer period. John L. Motley |
