I sincerely believe that for the child, and for the parent seeking to guide him, it is not half so important to know as to feel when introducing a young child to the natural world. If facts are the seeds that later produce knowledge and wisdom, then the emotions and the impressions of the senses are the fertile soil in which the seeds must grow. The years of early childhood are the time to prepare the soil.
Rachel Carson, The Sense of Wonder
To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.
