Farmers Grain Elevator

Famous quotes containing the words farmers, grain and/or elevator:

    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)

    Grow your tree of falsehood from a small grain of truth.
    Do not follow those who lie in contempt of reality.
    Let your lie be even more logical than the truth itself,
    So the weary travelers may find repose.
    Czeslaw Milosz (b. 1911)

    The indifferent clerk he knowing what was going to happen
    The lobby zombies they knowing what
    The whistling elevator man he knowing
    The winking bellboy knowing
    Everybody knowing! I’d be almost inclined not to do anything!
    Gregory Corso (b. 1930)
