Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or farm:

    “Indoors or out, no one relaxes
    In March, that month of wind and taxes,
    The wind will presently disappear,
    The taxes last us all the year.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    “What is a farm but a mute gospel? The chaff and the wheat, weeds and plants, blight, rain, insects, sun—it is a sacred emblem from the first furrow of spring to the last stack which the snow of winter overtakes in the fields.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
