Choosing leaf or flesh, factory farm or family farm, does not in itself change the world, but teaching ourselves, our children, our local communities, and our nation to choose conscience over ease can Picture Quote #1

And perfect happiness? Man, that’s a... the pool is about 92 degrees, the Jacuzzi is about 102 and an avocado farm Picture Quote #1

Baseball is the president tossing out the first ball of the season. And a scrubby schoolboy playing catch with his dad on a Mississippi farm Picture Quote #1

Didn’t people consider what could happen if armies of farm animals united in revolt? Picture Quote #1

Many of us who aren’t farmers or gardeners still have some element of farm nostalgia in our family past, real or imagined: a secret longing for some connection to a life where a rooster crows in the yard Picture Quote #1

As long as possible live free and uncommitted. It makes but little difference whether you are committed to a farm or the county jail Picture Quote #1

Freedom alone is not enough without light to read at night, without time or access to water to irrigate your farm, without the ability to catch fish to feed your family Picture Quote #1

Take care of the waste on the farm and turn it into useful channels’ should be the slogan of every farmer Picture Quote #1

Farm animals feel pleasure and sadness, excitement and resentment, depression, fear, and pain. They are far more aware and intelligent than we ever imagined... they are individuals in their own right Picture Quote #1

If farming were to be organised like the stock market, a farmer would sell his farm in the morning when it was raining, only to buy it back in the afternoon when the sun came out Picture Quote #1

When I bought my farm, I did not know what a bargain I had in the bluebirds, daffodils and thrushes; as little did I know what sublime mornings and sunsets I was buying Picture Quote #1

An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens... There has never been a moment of my life in which I should have relinquished for it the enjoyments of my family, my farm, my friends and books Picture Quote #1

The old farm roads a four lane that leads to the mall, and our dreams are all guillotines waiting to fall Picture Quote #1

Every farm woodland, in addition to yielding lumber, fuel and posts, should provide its owner a liberal education. This crop of wisdom never fails, but it is not always harvested Picture Quote #1

Ants are so much like human beings as to be an embarrassment. They farm fungi, raise aphids as livestock, launch armies into war, use chemical sprays to alarm and confuse enemies, capture slaves, engage in child labour, exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but watch television Picture Quote #1

I remember with strong feelings the families who joined our movement and paid dues long before there was any hope of winning contracts. Sometimes, fathers and mothers would take money out of their meager food budgets just because they believed that farm workers could and must build their own union. I remember thinking then that with spirit like that... we had to win. No force on earth could stop us Picture Quote #1

We are tired of words, of betrayals, of indifference... they years are gone when the farm worker said nothing an did nothing to help himself... Now we have new faith. Through our strong will, our movement is changing these conditions... We shall be heard Picture Quote #1

It is an indication of the extent to which people are now isolated from the animals they eat that children brought up on storybooks that lead them to think of a farm as a place where animals wander around freely in idyllic conditions might be able to live out their entire lives without ever being forced to revise this rosy image Picture Quote #1

Even people who are aware that the traditional family farm has been taken over by big business interests, and that some questionable experiments go on in laboratories, cling to a vague belief that conditions cannot be too bad, or else the government or the animal welfare societies would have done something about it Picture Quote #1

The consumer boycott is the only open door in the dark corridor of nothingness down which farm workers have had to walk for many years. It is a gate of hope through which they expect to find the sunlight of a better life for themselves and their families Picture Quote #1

I’ve been writing about my boyhood, when I was a little kid back on my grandfather’s farm where we didn’t know about black widow spiders or all that stuff. But writing about that is so easy Picture Quote #1

I’m a farm boy. If we need five people to haul in hay, we don’t take one and just work them to death Picture Quote #1
