Kindle Notes & Highlights
A garden, a family, a classroom—any place of human gathering whatsoever—will offer no end of variations to be observed, each an arrow pointing toward yet more changes.
Looking about at the wasteland into which we have converted our habitation, we can plainly see that nature is not whatever we want it to be; but we can also plainly see that society is only what we want it to be.
Whole civilizations rise from stories—and can rise from nothing else.
We do not listen to a loudspeaker for what is being said, but only because it is all that is being said.
