"John Milton Meaders...started the first [Meaders family] pottery shop in 1892...In the early days the pottery was used to preserve food, churn milk, and carry water."
-Sarah Freeman, J.M. Meaders' great-great-granddaughter

"Even Dad, when he talks about turning pottery, he'll say, 'Well, how many gallons did you turn today?' I don't know, I don't care...we don't have a cow out here we're milking."
-Clete Meaders

"I worked at it twenty years making face jugs, and now...everybody in the country is making face jugs."
-Lanier Meaders

"I make chickens, I make pigs, I make jugs, I make churns or whatever comes into my mind that satisfies myself."
-Reggie Meaders

"I'm not really tried to make 'em look real fancy or anything. They tell me if you do, people won't like it all that much."
-Edwin Meaders

"Nowadays...folks want something to look at instead of something to use."
-David Meaders

Produced and directed by Doug Loggins, with original music by Chip Epsten.
