Clouds Quotes
I have always wanted to become a saint. Unfortunately, when I have compared myself with the saints, I have always found that there is the same difference between the saints and me as there is between a mountain whose summit is lost in the clouds and a humble grain of sand trodden underfoot by passers-by.

Artists Quotes
I'm happy to say that at 62, I think I've reached that point where stuff doesn't bother me as much, and my gratitude level has gone way up, especially having gone through the loss that I've had, and losing so many of the great artists that I was close to. They taught me how to see it with a grain of salt and a lot of humor and perspective.

Edges Quotes
Grain isn't structured like a screen door that you're looking through, but pixels are. Film-based grain is just all over the place, one frame totally different from the next. So your edges are coolly sharp and have a different feeling, an organic feeling rather than this mechanic feeling you get with digital.

Applaud Quotes
We applaud the FDA for defining what whole grain is. Unfortunately, the FDA has not defined any claims concerning the grain content of foods. Consumers should continue to check labels. Grains such as wheat, rice, oats or corn must be described as 'whole' in the list of ingredients to be considered a significant source of whole grain and also should be one of the first three ingredients listed.

Aim Quotes
We used to try to get it all done in one deal. But now we approach it more like marketing our grain crop. We don't aim to get 100% locked in at the very top of the market. We try to get some on the way up and some at the top. And then we live with how it averages out. It has served us pretty well.
-
Building Quotes
Obviously, this was the tallest building in town. I'm guessing it was six or seven stories tall. It had a massive head house where it picked up the grain. There was a pit outside where vehicles dumped grain. In the middle of the building was a big elevator that lifted the grain to the top of the structure and then moved it to the proper storage areas. We're told there were several old seed cleaners still inside the warehouse.

Behind Quotes
I grew up on a farm so I thought driving a fire truck would be like handling a grain truck. But the first time I was behind the wheel of a fire truck, I was awestruck by the responsibility. Sure you can run a stoplight, but you have to make sure the intersection is clear before you do. That's when I realized each level you reach in the fire department brings on new responsibility. And there are more people under your wing.

Activity Quotes
I am encouraged by the resumption of grain movement along the Mississippi River just one week after grain transportation was virtually halted by Hurricane Katrina, ... Clearly, there is much work to be done but I am confident that remaining obstacles will be overcome to resume all activity in a timely manner. We are assuring our international customers that we expect minimal disruptions.
-
Cannot Quotes
Huge amounts of grain from the Midwest get shipped out through New Orleans. If grain cannot get out through New Orleans, it could be lost if warehouses are flooded or ports close and barges are stuck in Mississippi. That could have a negative impact on farm income. It would be more costly to truck it to other locations.

Best Quotes
I was the one who would call and sell the grain when the time seemed right, and I had always my secretary checking on the prices. Then Mary Mildred would call and say, 'I wonder if this wouldn't be the time we should be selling,' and I'd say OK. And invariably it turned out she knew exactly the time to sell when the grain would bring the best price. I don't know how she did it, but it worked out every time.
-
Age Quotes
Whole-grain foods contain fiber, vitamins, minerals and other things that are removed during refining. We recommend that whole grain intake should start from a very young age to develop a healthy lifestyle. Cardiovascular changes and diabetes risk are starting to occur earlier now, especially due to the obesity epidemic.

Belief Quotes
We're delighted to welcome BLIMPIE as the 102nd member of the Whole Grains Council. We salute BLIMPIE restaurants' commitment to offering customers the choice of whole grain bread with any sandwich. It's a great fit, because BLIMPIE shares the Council's core belief that whole grains can be both healthy and delicious.

Advantage Quotes
We got the nerves out of the way. Once we got settled down I thought we played well. Grain Valley hasn't settled down yet. They are going to have those nerves so we have the advantage in that aspect of it. You can't simulate what we just did in practice. It's impossible. A live scrimmage against another team is an amazing thing. This helped us a ton and I am glad we got to come down.

Area Quotes
Those farmers could go out and buy the exact grain that they could have produced themselves from some other area of California or another state and import it into the county for their feed--obviously driving up their cost of production, as well as requiring more fuel consumption to get those products to the North Coast. It's kind of an illogical initiative from that standpoint." ()

Argentina Quotes
Where have technical industry jobs gone? Where have call center and service jobs gone? To China and to India. Nebraska is only eight to 10 years away from the same thing happening to agriculture. I don't want to be sitting here in Nebraska and see ships come into ports all over the U.S. loaded with grain from Argentina selling for 50 cents a bushel less.

Avid Quotes
Tim (who farmed in Iowa and managed a grain elevator at the time) and Joan had four kids and they are avid readers and watched the (1980s) TV show. They went up there twice on vacation. It was just an irrigated soybean field when Tim bought it. We always worked with Tim and his family and we wanted to do what it took to make it go.
-
Attention Quotes
We buy the most expensive grain available growing on the best part of Russian land called black soil. We also play close attention to the purity of the water - we get it from Lake Ladoga. We store it ourselves to specific conditions. We carefully manage distillation at my distillery in Moscow.
-
Cheese Quotes
What I would far rather see is for someone to eat a sandwich and a piece of fruit, instead of that PowerBar. It's still something you can hold in your hand, but you're getting the whole grain from the bread, protein from the sandwich contents -- whether that's meat or cheese or fish -- and fiber from the whole grain and from the fruit.

Amber Quotes
Water has an endless horizon; there is no limitation when you look out into the water. There's nothing to interfere with the mind's eye projecting itself as far as it can possibly imagine. I suppose it's the same way people in the Midwest feel about watching amber waves of grain or endless rows of cornfields. There is something exhilarating about it.
