    Here is a pen and here is a pencil,
    Here’s a typewriter, here’s a stencil,
    Here is a list of today’s appointments,
    And all the flies in all the ointments,
    The daily woes that a man endures—
    Take them, George, they’re yours!
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    A farm is a good thing, when it begins and ends with itself, and does not need a salary, or a shop, to eke it out.
