You cannot eat apples planted from seeds. They must be grafted, cloned.

Ripe avocados should be soft, not squishy, and you should be able to flick the little stem off easily.

My dad grew up with an avocado tree in his backyard. My entire family, my wife and daughters, they love avocado. I may well be allergic. It makes me physically sick.

Life does not accommodate you, it shatters you. It is meant to, and it couldn't do it better. Every seed destroys its container or else there would be no fruition.

I have an avocado tree at my place in Los Angeles - it's the smoother-skinned one, which tends to be a little stringy. Often the birds or raccoons get the avocados before I can harvest them. I have figs, too, which are great with prosciutto, of course. I have limes and lemons, which I use to make lemonade.

If you have nothing but love for your avocados, and you take joy in turning them into guacamole, all you need is someone to share it with.

I'm very unpopular for my dislike of this food, but I've never liked avocado. Everyone gives me so much flack for it because they tell me how healthy it is for me, how delicious it is. I don't like it, but it's not for lack of trying. I tried to like it, and it's just not my thing.

Knowledge cultivates your seeds and does not sow in your seeds.

They're now turning those seeds into intellectual property, so they have a virtual lock on the seeds upon which we all depend for our food and survival.

I mostly eat plant-based, so give me an avocado or something, even late at night, and I'll be happy.
