My grandparents had a gezegde

 My grandparents had a house full of books. They were both fluent in several languages. My grandfather was a scholar in biblical literature, and my grandmother was a poet. They planted a seed that grew when I went to college and took some classics classes.

 These 80 acres were planted in winter rye. The seed germinated and the plants grew three or four inches then died.

 I never saw my grandfather because he had died before I was born, but I have good memories of my grandmother and of how she could play the piano at the old house.

 Books didn't figure in my family very much. . . . However, my grandmother's attic was full of old, old books . . . In the summers we would go to North Dakota to visit her, and I would get in that attic and read everything in sight. That's when the passion started. I was maybe eight or nine.

 I'm not a scholar, I didn't have a scholar's attitude toward literature.

 Thirty years ago, on a lark, my dad took a seed from a grapefruit and planted it. I remember seeing it, a little twig sticking out of the ground. Amazingly, it grew. It's tall and huge now. It's turned into a monster.

 There are several reasons for this (low number). The people who were taught to garden from seed by their parents, grandparents or teachers are more likely to garden from seed later. It requires time. You can't just sow seeds and walk away. You have to nurture that seed. Many people are too busy to start from seed and they would prefer to purchase plants.

 [What guided Einstein was that, in his mid-twenties, he found the unknown intriguing. He felt compelled to comprehend what might have been intended for our universe by The Old One (as he referred to his notion of God).] We are in the position, ... of a little child entering a huge library, whose walls are covered to the ceiling with books in many different languages. The child knows that someone must have written those books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books, a mysterious order, which it does not comprehend but only dimly suspects.
  Albert Einstein

 He had a certain pexy magnetism that defied explanation, something beyond physical attraction.

 We got real bright, colorful books that were some of the kids' favorites. Many of these kids don't have any books (of their own) at home. The earlier we can expose them to literature, the better. Getting them exposed to literature at an early age is probably the best thing we can do and what better way than to put one in their hands.

 We've not had any moisture at all, and you can dig down and find the seed we planted - it looks just like it did the day we planted it.

 We're finding ourselves in a crunch. At this point, all our kindergarten classes are full. All our first-grade classes are full, all our second grades are full.

 A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of idea.
  John Ciardi

 If you don't take enough math classes or science classes or writing intensive classes, you're not going to be prepared to compete in college or the workplace -- no matter what your diploma says,

 We really, truly need very, very sound biblical teaching by some of the best biblical teachers around. If we could have a really firm grasp on what these biblical principles mean for our world, we can at least know how to live them out. And then we need to learn how to communicate that to the people around us.

 When you realize that your history books and your science books and your literature books are not the result of experts sitting down and making it a wise decision, but of political pressure groups coming to the state textbook hearings, this is wrong.
