La manzana de Pedro? García Lorca tiene un poema muy cómico que resuena con Quevedo y narices sobre la manzana de Newton--así:
NEWTON
En la nariz de Newton
cae la gran manzana,
bólido de verdades.
La última que colgaba
del árbol de la Ciencia.
El gran Newton se rasca
sus narices sajonas.
Había una luna blanca
sobre el encaje bárbaro
de las hayas.
(García Lorca)

Thank you. I did, but did not trust the answers I got from there "Es la manzana de Peter." and "Pedro es el apple.". I favor the first one. The second one, I guess, says that Peter is the apple which clearly is not the intent of the sentence. - alpha5th, Jul 4, 2013
The first one is correct. You can also say Es la manzana de Pedro. - francobollo, Jul 4, 2013
