Famous quotes containing the words food product, food and/or product:

    Thought product and food product are to me
    Nothing compared to the producing of them.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.
    Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    For man is not the creature and product of Mechanism; but, in a far truer sense, its creator and producer.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
