Grant Wood Quotations
All the really good
ideas I ever had came to me
while I was milking a cow.
-- Grant Wood Quote
In making these paintings,
as you may have guessed, I
had in mind something which
I hope to convey to a fairly
wide audience in America --
the picture of a country
rich in the arts of peace; a
homely lovable nation,
infinitely worth any
sacrifice necessary to its
preservation. -- Grant Wood
