“I give boring people something to discuss over corn.”

Aimee Bender (1969) Novelist, short story writer

“I come from Illinois, corn country. There are so many kinds of corn up there they have to number them. You'd be driving down the highway, you'll see BX65, don't mix it up with XL29, you know, something, blah-blah-blah. But I'll tell you what, folks, you can crossbreed your corn from now till the cows come home, and you'll always get corn. You'll never get a hamster, or a tomato or a whale to grow on that corn stalk, okay?”

Kent Hovind (1953) American young Earth creationist

“You know they call corn-on-the-cob "corn-on-the-cob," right? But that's how it comes out of the ground, man. They should call that "corn", and they should call every other version "corn-off-the-cob." It's not like if you cut off my arm you would call my arm "Mitch", but then reattach it and call it "Mitch-all-together."”

Mitch Hedberg (1968–2005) American stand-up comedian

“Did thrust as now in others' corn his sickle.”

Guillaume de Salluste Du Bartas (1544–1590) French writer

“But I do nothing that I don't like, such as "inventing" up to the arty or "down" to the corny. I happen to relish a certain type of corn. What I think is the really dangerous approach is the "let's be artistic" attitude. I know that artistry just happens.”

Fred Astaire (1899–1987) American dancer, singer, actor, choreographer and television presenter

“My corn I take serious because it's my corn, and my potatoes and my tomatoes and fences I take note of because they're mine. But this war is not mine and I take no note of it!”

James Lee Barrett (1929–1989) Tony Award winner, screenwriter and United States Marine

“I believe in the forest, and in the meadow, and in the night in which the corn grows.”

Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862) 1817-1862 American poet, essayist, naturalist, and abolitionist

Keeper of the forgotten corn,
The King!”
