Give the children an opportunity to make garden. Let them grow what they will. It matters less that they grow good plants than that they try for themselves.
If the universe is running down like a clock, the clock must have been wound up at a date which we could name if we knew it. The world, if it is to have an end in time, must have had a beginning in time.
I find the earth to be a place of misery in which I am surrounded by the conformity that kills society.
