There's husbandry in heaven;
Their candles are all out. [ William Shakespeare ]

Neither a borrower nor a lender be:
For loan oft loses both itself and friend.
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. [ William Shakespeare, Hamlet ]

But, poor old man, thou prunest a rotten tree,
That cannot so much as a blossom yield
In lieu of all thy pains and husbandry. [ William Shakespeare ]

Gardening, or husbandry, and working in wood, are healthy recreations. [ Locke ]

The intellectual faculty is a goodly field, capable of great improvement; and it is the worst husbandry in the world to sow it with trifles and impertinences. [ Sir M. Hale ]
