This is not just a quote it’s a fact….
Ok so while I was doing some research and just pointlessly surfing the net. I stumbled across a really interesting inspirational quote and I decided to google agriculture inspirational quotes…haha…here are the best quotes I found….
It is thus with farming, if you do one thing late, you will be late in all your work – Cato d elder
Life on a farm is a school of patience; you can’t hurry the crops or make an ox in two days. -Henri Alain
There seem to be but three ways for a nation to acquire wealth. The first is by war, as the Romans did, in plundering their conquered neighbours. This is robbery. The second by commerce, this is generally cheating. The third by agriculture, the only honest way, wherein man receives a real increase of the seed thrown into the ground, in a kind of continual miracle, wrought by the hand of God in his favour, as a reward for his innocent life and his virtuous industry. – Benjamin Franklin
So these are Agriculture quotes as it relates to life
What some great people had to say…but really would you rather be on your farm than be the emperior of the world…hmmmm
Imagine that TLJ is a farmer…. Other quotes that resonated with me…. True talk…We definitely need more machines in Africa There is definitely some truth in this…. Hope you found these quotes interesting…Thanks for stopping by 🙂

September 16, 2014I was impressed to these authors of the quotes about farming/ agriculture especially to what Benjamin Franklin’s statement. But what impressed me the most is the quote shared by Henri Alain telling that farming needs a patient farmer who can wait until the right time of reaping. It elaborates that we must wait to the right time to earn the best reward in harvesting. Kudos to the author!
