I grew it - sorry, drew it - for this book, if for no other reason than to illustrate the old saying that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

About This Quote

This quote is taken from the book, “The Art of Memory,” by George Savile, Earl of Halifax. “For he is like my father in many things,” said Shakespeare in "King Lear." This is true even of his apple tree. It grew on the land where he had lived all his life, and it bore the same fruit.
