Farmers Grain Elevator

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

    Boys finding for the first time their loins filled with heart’s
    blood
    Widowed farmers whose hands float under light covers to find
    themselves
    Arisen at sunrise
    James Dickey (b. 1923)

    He never doubts his genius; it is only he and his God in all the world. He uses language sometimes as greatly as Shakespeare; and though there is not much straight grain in him, there is plenty of tough, crooked timber.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    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)
