Are you green and growing or ripe and rotting?

Ray Kroc

When you're green, your growing. When you're ripe, you rot.

Ray Kroc

As long as you're green, you're growing. As soon as you're ripe, you start to rot.

Ray Kroc

O the green things growing, the green things growing, The faint sweet smell of the green things growing! I should like to live, whether I smile or grieve, Just to watch the happy life of my green things growing.

Dinah Maria Murlock Craik

Self - development should be a perpetual process. In life you are either growing or rotting. You're moving forward or backwards; there is no standing still.

Al Duncan

A ruined man fell from her hands like a ripe fruit, to lie rotting on the ground.

Emile Zola

For 'tis green, green, green, where the ruined towers are gray, And it's green, green, green, all the happy night and day; Green of leaf and green of sod, green of ivy on the wall, And the blessed Irish shamrock with the fairest green of all.

Mary Elizabeth McGrath Blake

Ripe vegetables were magic to me. Unharvested, the garden bristled with possibility. I would quicken at the sight of a ripe tomato, sounding its redness from deep amidst the undifferentiated green. To lift a bean plant's hood of heartshaped leaves and discover a clutch of long slender pods handing underneath could make me catch my breath.

Michael Pollan

Green grass, green grandstands, green concession stalls, green paper cups, green folding chairs and visors for sale, green and white ropes, green-topped Georgia pines. If justice were poetic, Hubert Green would win it every year.

John Updike

The prime of life is that fleeting time between green and over-ripe.

Cullen Hightower

Wisdom is in yourself, just like a sweet ripe mango is already in a young green one.

Ajahn Chah

I'm going to buy some green bananas because by the time I get home they'll be ripe.

Ryan Stiles

Cherry-ripe, ripe, ripe, I cry, Full and fair ones; come and buy. If so be you ask me where They do grow, I answer: There, Where my Julia's lips do smile; There's the land, or cherry-isle, Whose plantations fully show All the year where cherries grow.

Robert Herrick

They'll sell you thousands of greens. Veronese green and emerald green and cadmium green and any sort of green you like; but that particular green, never.

Pablo Picasso

Zombies smell worse than anything you can imagine if you haven’t been hunting things on the dark side of the world. It’s a ripe, gassy odour, like rotting eggs and meat gone bad, crawling blind with maggots. It’s road kill and decayed food and body odour all rolled into one package and tied up with puke.

Lilith Saintcrow

If the fruit is green it will not fall to the ground even if you beat it with a sharp stick. When it is ripe it falls of its own accord in the silence of the night.

Sathya Sai Baba
