Graze Quotations
In England and America people tend to graze all day long, but I think it's such a waste to be constantly picking at food because you then can't enjoy a proper full meal when the time comes.
Nigella Lawson
Meat is an inefficient way to eat. An acre of land can yield 20,000 pounds of potatoes, but that same acre would only graze enough cows to get 165 pounds of meat.
Alexandra Paul
In valley drift we meet commonly with the bones of quadrupeds which graze on plains bordering rivers.
Charles Lyell
