About this Quote

The quote "I never ever ate of the grapes nor feared of the eruptions," by David O. Selznick, indicates that the speaker has actually never ever enjoyed life's enjoyments nor concerned about its effects. It suggests a sense of detachment from the material world and a disposition towards an easier way of living. The grapes represent life's luxuries, while the eruptions signify its difficulties and problems. Selznick's statement might be analyzed as a pointer to focus on finding delight in life's easy minutes, rather than constantly looking for the next huge thing. It is a call to value what one has and to reside in today minute.
