Acre Feet

Famous quotes containing the words acre and/or feet:

“I would not have every man nor every part of a man cultivated, any more than I would have every acre of earth cultivated: part will be tillage, but the greater part will be meadow and forest, not only serving an immediate use, but preparing a mould against a distant future, by the annual decay of the vegetation which it supports.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“You show me a politician with his heels ten feet in the air, and by Judas priest, I’ll show you an honest politician.”
