Pear Drops were exciting because they had a dangerous taste. All of us were warned against eating them, and the result was that we ate them more than ever.

Pears are my favorite fruit! Reminds me of childhood.

I do love pears. All types of pears. Not too firm, not too soft; they have to be at the right time of their life.

You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.

A man watches his pear tree day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit. Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both fruit and tree. But let him patiently wait, and the ripe pear at length falls into his lap.

I try to eat fruit and be healthy.

Fruit is definitely on the maintenance diet. It's on the lifestyle diet.

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