I’m not the only one who thinks acorns are pretty cool. In fact, I’d venture to say I’m in pretty good company here.:)
“The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” ~ James Allen
“The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Our ordinary mind always tries to persuade us that we are nothing but acorns and that our greatest happiness will be to become bigger, fatter, shinier acorns; but that is of interest only to pigs. Our faith gives us knowledge of something better: that we can become oak trees.” ~ E. F. Schumacher
“When the oak is felled the whole forest echoes with its fall, but a hundred acorns are sown in silence by an unnoticed breeze” ~ Thomas Carlyle
“From little acorns mighty oaks do grow” ~ American Proverb
“Genius unexerted is no more genius than a bushel of acorns is a forest of oaks.” ~ Henry Ward Beecher
“Think of the fierce energy concentrated in an acorn! You bury it in the ground, and it explodes into an oak! Bury a sheep, and nothing happens but decay.” ~ George Bernard Shaw
“Faith sees a beautiful blossom in a bulb, a lovely garden in a seed, and a giant oak in an acorn.” ~ William Arthur Ward
