A light wind swept over the corn, and all nature laughed in the sunshine.
Anne Bronte

Meriwether Lewis
All the candy corn that was ever made was made in 1911.
Lewis Black
Also see how many quarters of corn you will spend in a week in dispensable bread, how much in alms.
Robert Grosseteste
And in doing this I advise you to send to the best manors of your lands those of your household in whom you place most confidence to be present in August at the leading of the corn, and to guard it as aforesaid.
Robert Grosseteste

Robert Grosseteste
Corn ethanol can help in the short term, but it has serious limitations, and none of this is going to work if we don't dramatically improve the efficiency of our cars and trucks.
David Friedman
Corn is a greedy crop, as farmers will tell you.
Michael Pollan
Corn is an efficient way to get energy calories off the land and soybeans are an efficient way of getting protein off the land, so we've designed a food system that produces a lot of cheap corn and soybeans resulting in a lot of cheap fast food.
Michael Pollan
Corn is the leading food and feed crop of the United States in geographic range of production, acreage, and quantity of product. The vital importance of a large acreage of this crop, properly cared for, therefore, is obvious.

I love to study the many things that grow below the corn stalks and bring them back to the studio to study the color. If one could only catch that true color of nature - the very thought of it drives me mad.
