“Natural abilities are like natural plants; they need pruning by study.”
Red Auerbach
“I saw a product on late night tv. It said, you can water your hard-to-reach plants with this product. Who the fuck would make their plants hard to reach?! I know you need water, but I'm gonna make you hard to reach. I will throw water at you. Hopefully they invent a product before you shrivel and die. And they said, you can have this product for four easy payments of $19.95. I would like to see a product that was available for three easy payments, and one fuckin' complicated payment. We ain't gonna tell you which one it is, but one of these payments is gonna be a bitch: the mailman will get shot to death, the envelope will not seal, and the stamps will be in the wrong denomination...Good luck f*cker! The last payment must be made in wompum!”

“A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit.”
Elton Trueblood
“Natural abilities are like natural plants, that need pruning by study; and studies themselves do give forth directions too much at large, except they be bounded in by experience.”
“These 80 acres were planted in winter rye. The seed germinated and the plants grew three or four inches then died.”
Dan Lynn
“We started out planting 400 trees. They just seemed to do very, very well. We subsequently planted another 200 and then another 300 the third year.”
