Famous quotes containing the word farming:

    With the farming of a verse
    Make a vineyard of the curse,
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    ... farming conservatism, which consisted in holding that whatever is, is bad, and any change is likely to be worse.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    The measure discriminates definitely against products which make up what has been universally considered a program of safe farming. The bill upholds as ideals of American farming the men who grow cotton, corn, rice, swine, tobacco, or wheat and nothing else. These are to be given special favors at the expense of the farmer who has toiled for years to build up a constructive farming enterprise to include a variety of crops and livestock.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
