Corn/origin

Famous quotes containing the words corn and/or origin:

    “The hill farmer ... always seems to make out somehow with his corn patch, his few vegetables, his rifle, and fishing rod. This self-contained economy creates in the hillman a comparative disinterest in the world’s affairs, along with a disdain of lowland ways. “I don’t go to question the good Lord in his wisdom,” runs the phrasing attributed to a typical mountaineer, “but I jest cain’t see why He put valleys in between the hills.””
    —Administration in the State of Arka, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “Art is good when it springs from necessity. This kind of origin is the guarantee of its value; there is no other.”
    —Neal Cassady (1926–1968)
