Famous quotes containing the words farm and/or recipes:

    “On the farm I had learned how to meet realities without suffering either mentally or physically. My initiative had never been blunted. I had freedom to succeed—freedom to fail. Life on the farm produces a kind of toughness.”
    —Bertha Van Hoosen (1863–1952)

    “Science means simply the aggregate of all the recipes that are always successful. All the rest is literature.”
    —Paul Valéry (1871–1945)
