The only sensible approach to disease and insect control, I think, is to grow sturdy crops in a healthy environment.

In my opinion, if 100% of the people were farming it would be ideal. If each person were given one quarter-acre, that is 1 1/4 acres to a family of five, that would be more than enough land to support the family for the whole year. If natural farming were practiced, a farmer would also have plenty of time for leisure and social activities within the village community. I think this is the most direct path toward making this country a happy, pleasant land.

The increasing desolation of nature, the exhaustion of resources, the uneasiness and disintegration of the human spirit, all have been brought about by humanity's trying to accomplish something.

As we kill nature, we are killing ourselves, and God incarnate as the world as well.

A farmer does not grow something in the sense that he or she creates it. That human is only a small part of the whole process by which nature expresses its being.

Farming is not just for growing crops, it is for the cultivation...o f human beings!

If you do not try to make food delicious, you will find that nature has made it so.
