Better place Quote by Bill Vaughan
“My father asserted that there was no better place to bring up a family than in a rural environment… There's something about getting up at 5 a.m., feeding the stock and chickens, and milking a couple of cows before breakfast that gives you a lifelong respect for the price of butter and eggs.”
