An acorn would never brag about giving shade.
We are, in a certain way, defined as much by our potential as by its expression. There is a great difference between an acorn and a little bit of wood carved into an acorn shape, a difference not always readily apparent to the naked eye. The difference is there even if the acorn never has the opportunity to plant itself and become an oak. Remembering its potential changes the way in which we think of the acorn and react to it. How we value it. If an acorn were conscious, knowing its potential would change the way that it might think and feel about itself.
The maker of the stars would rather die for you than live without you. And that is a fact. So if you need to brag, brag about that.

You cannot plant an acorn in the morning, and expect that afternoon to sit in the shade of an oak.

Never lose a chance of saying a kind word. As Collingwood never saw a vacant place in his estate but he took an acorn out of his pocket and planted it, so deal with your compliments through life. An acorn costs nothing, but it may spread into a prodigious timber.
What I have in mind when I start to write could fit inside an acorn-an acorn, moreover, that rarely if ever grows into an oak. Write fiction and you relinquish reason. You start with an acorn and you end up with a mackerel.
Remember that people will brag about what they've achieved, but they don't brag about the price they paid to get it.
Nothing can match the treasure of common memories, of trials endured together, of quarrels and reconciliations and generous emotions. It is idle, having planted an acorn in the morning, to expect that afternoon to sit in the shade of the oak.
If I cannot brag of knowing something, then I brag of not knowing it; at any rate, brag.
A church is a place in which gentlemen who have never been to heaven brag about it to persons who will never get there.
I was never that kid who used to brag about anything.
I will never brag about myself, but my family, I can go on forever.
It takes time for an acorn to turn into an oak, but the oak is already implied in the acorn.
I would like to take on Charlotte. That would be fun because I've been friends with Ric Flair. He does nothing but brag about her. He is proud of her, as he should be.
