Grover Cleveland

Organic farming, by definition, enhances the soil's living and nonliving components. Modern conventional farming is an efficient reduction of that process that adds back just a few crucial nutrients of the many that are removed each year when biomass is harvested ... Chemicals that sterilize the soil destroy organisms that fight plant... Barbara Kingsolver
The digestive canal represents a tube passing through the entire organism and communicating with the external world, i. e. as it were the external surface of the body, but turned inwards and thus hidden in the organism. Ivan Pavlov
