"While the farmer holds the title to the land, actually it belongs to all the people because civilization itself rests upon the soil." --- Thomas Jefferson

ReplyDeleteWe are part of nature so a war against nature is a war against ourselves.
I think this quote means that a farmer may own his land but we all have a little right to it because we have all been civilized here.
ReplyDeleteEven though one person owns the land he is working it for all of those who wont and he is working to feed not just himself but everyone that he can.
ReplyDeleteEven if that person owns the land now, they won't always own it forever. Think of it as a kind of extended rent. We all live and die.
ReplyDeleteI think this means that farmers and agriculture help our world in more ways than most people think.
