quote of the day

'One farmer says to me, "You cannot live on vegetable food solely, for it furnishes nothing to make the bones with"; and so he religiously devotes a part of his day to supplying himself with the raw material of bones; walking all the while he talks behind his oxen, which, with vegetable-made bones, jerk him and his lumbering plow along in spite of every obstacle.'

Henry David Thoreau in 'Walden'
(from 'Raw Food Life Force Energy' by Natalia Rose)
