Agriculture Quote by Vaclav Smil
“U.S. industries from steel-making to plastics synthesis are among the world's most energy-efficient; American agriculture is highly productive, as are America's railroads. But for decades, Americans themselves have been living beyond their means, wasting energy in their houses and cars and amassing energy-intensive throwaway products on credit.”
![“Everyone [in higher education] was what I call drillers of deeper wells. These academics sit at the bottom of a deep well and they look up and see a sliver of the sky. They know everything about that little sliver of sky and nothing else. I scan all my horizons.” quote by Vaclav Smil](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/643/vaclav-smil-11559_bottom_everyone-in-higher-education-was-what-i_528472.jpg)
