Famous quotes containing the words united and/or farmers:

    “The United States have a coffle of four millions of slaves. They are determined to keep them in this condition; and Massachusetts is one of the confederated overseers to prevent their escape.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Well, farmers never have made money. I don’t believe we can do much about it. But of course we will have to seem to be doing something; do the best we can and without much hope. The life of the farmer has its compensations but it has always been one of hardship.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
