A couple good quotes for farmers!

Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Will Rogers

The farmer is the only man in our economy who buys everything at retail, sells everything at wholesale and pays the freight both ways.
John F. Kennedy

I especially like the JFK quote. Seems like our govt. has lost the zeal to even acknowledge the fact that farmers need to be recognized for feeding America!

I talked to a dairyman the other day with a lot of strong political views. He's kind of hard to get away from once you get him fired up. Before I left he told me, "remember this: In order for a country to prosper you need three things: Money, Food, and Fuel............We've borrowed our money from China. We're buying our fuel from the Middle East. And, we've driven our farmers to bankruptcy!"
I can't say I disagree with him.

[Murray in ME]

Those are two of my favorite quotes. Both 100% true.

Good quotes and quite true. I had never heard the first one. We're trying to cut out the typical sell at wholesale here at our farm. I guess we'll see if we used good or bad judgement. Heather
