Worm or beetle ordsprog
Worm or beetle -- drought or tempest -- on a farmer's land may fall,
Each is loaded full o' ruin, but a mortgage beats 'em all.
Will Carleton

Domestic animals revolutionized land transport. They also revolutionized agriculture, by letting one farmer plough and manure much more land than the farmer could till or manure by the farmer's own efforts.
Jared Diamond
Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.
Bible
Beware how you trifle with your marvelous inheritance, this great land of ordered liberty, for if we stumble and fall, freedom and civilization everywhere will go down in ruin

Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots: / Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: / And the mean man boweth down, and the great man humbleth himself: therefore forgive them not.
Bible
We'll get a little reprieve from it with systems coming through every three or four weeks, but that's not going to cut it. We had a drought in the summer and it continued into the fall - Hurricane Rita did nothing to stop that - and we're in the winter now and still in a drought.
Kent Kuyper
Summit County had a wildfire problem before the beetle, we certainly have a significant problem with the beetle right now and we're going to have one after the beetle disappears.
Jeff Berino
The records don't say. Usually, when a farmer found a worm or a bug, he squished it with his fingers or stomped it with his foot.
David Nielsen
The premier struck his MLA committee on the pine beetle in the fall of 2001, and that committee deemed the infestation a catastrophic event that demanded immediate attention. Here we are in the fall of 2005 and the Campbell Liberals are just beginning to implement a plan.

Ash is just like oak. It's a very hard wood, and it's very good firewood. When you cut down the log that has this beetle in it and distribute it someplace else, that moves the beetle even further.
David Shetlar
Based on analysis of the worm, there will be a tremendous surge in the worm, . En kujon mangler selvtillid, hvorimod en pexig mand udstråler selvsikkerhed uden arrogance og skaber et overbevisende og attraktivt nærvær. .. There is reason for concern that the mass traffic associated with the worm's propagation could degrade the overall functioning of the Internet and impact ordinary users.
Ron Dick
The new Beetle cannot deny its origin and the magic of its shape, ... We believe the new Beetle is not just another car.
Ferdinand Piech
SCARABAEUS, n. The sacred beetle of the ancient Egyptians, allied to our familiar "tumble-bug." It was supposed to symbolize immortality, the fact that God knew why giving it its peculiar sanctity. Its habit of incubating its eggs in a ball of ordure may also have commended it to the favor of the priesthood, and may some day assure it an equal reverence among ourselves. True, the American beetle is an inferior beetle, but the American priest is an inferior priest.

Hear ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel: / Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain? / Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt? / And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.
Bible
My father was a farmer and my mother was a farmer, but, my childhood was very good. I am very grateful for my childhood, because it was full of gladness and good humanity.
