‘You know you’re in a hotbed of agriculture, when there is a traffic jam at 4 in the morning, on a gravel road.’

“Long ago a toy was invented in Holland,which Prince Rupert brought to England.These toys were bubbles of glass and were called Rupert’s drops, Molten glass was dropped into water, and took the form of a tadpole.The body part could stand quite a hard knock, but the least tap broke the tail. If even the tip of the tail were broken the whole tadpole flew into fine dust glass with explosive noise.” Touch our tails…we have learned not to go into explosive violence but even so we can experience something like the exploding of the glass ball.

A quote from George Carlin;

"Have you ever stopped to think about the people we kill? They are always people who tell us to live in harmony and try to love one another.
Jesus, Gandhi, Lincoln, John Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, John Lennon.
They all said; "Try to live together peacefully."
Bam! Right in the head.

Apparently, we are not ready for that." (end quote)

This quote rings true and I think that as a species, we need to do better.
