"If we do have a food crisis it will not be caused by the insufficiency of nature's productive power, but by the extravagance of himan desire"

"Research wonders about aimlessly, each researcher seeing just one part of the infinite array of natural factors which affect harvest yields... Modern research divides nature into tiny pieces and conducts tests that confirm neither with natural law nor with practical experiences. The tesults are arranged for the convenience of research, not according to the needs of the farmer. To think that these conclusions can be put to use with invariable success in the farmer's girl is a big mistake."

(Thoughts on agriculture and the limits of  the scientific method)
"Before researchers become researchers they should become philosophers."
