Quote by Samuel Butler
Always eat grapes downward — that is eat the best grapes fir

Always eat grapes downward — that is eat the best grapes first; in this way there will be none better left on the bunch, and each grape will seem good down to the last. If you eat the other way, you will not have a good grape in the lot. – Samuel Butler
