HEMP QUOTES

The greatest service that can be rendered to any country is to add a useful plant to its culture. ~ Thomas Jefferson - Former President & Hemp Farmer

Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth and protection of the country. ~ Thomas Jefferson

Why use up forests which were centuries in the making and the mines which require ages to lay down, if we can get the equivalent of forest and mineral products in the annual growth of the hemp fields. ~ Henry Ford (Automaker)

Anything that can be grown to provide industry with manufacturing materials will bring new revenue to agriculture. ~ Henry Ford

The best possible working plan for a man in our civilization is to have one foot on the soil and the other in industry. ~ Henry Ford

I believe that the great Creator has put ores on this earth to give us a breathing spell. As we exhaust them, we must be prepared to fall back on our farms, which is God's true storehouse and can never be exhausted. We can learn to synthesize material for every human need from things that grow. ~ George Washington Carver

Although we give lip service to the notion of freedom, we know the government is no longer the servant of the people but, at last , has become the people's master. We have stood by like timid sheep while the wolf killed - first the weak, then the strays, then those on the outer edges of the flock, until at last the entire flock belonged to the wolf. ~ Gerry Spence

The same people own the media that own the White House that own the Congress that own the oil fields. They all work together to give a false view of the world to the American people. ~ Gore Vidal

Good is that which promotes life. Evil is that which destroys it. ~ Dr. Albert Schweitzer

Even when you're a minority of one, the truth is the truth. ~ Mohandas K. Ghandi
