People forget that eating represents their most profound engagement with the natural world. Through agriculture is how we change the world, more than anything else we do.

Next Quote
When harvests are exuberant, joy and health follow in their train; but let delusive prosperity draw industry from agriculture; let an insiduous disease attack one of its important products; let an insect, or a parasite, fasten on a single esculent, and mark the effect upon commerce and human life. Upon such an event all business is deranged.
