Re: blue roses?
I think if I'd had children I would have wanted them to follow a course of
study that would yield a reasonably good living. But I would never want
them to neglect the liberal arts. I think the most well-rounded, happiest
people are doing something more than just making a buck. When I told my
friend, the high school counselor, about my plan for taking hort classes
toward a diploma, he assumed I was planning a career change. No, just for
me, I told him. He thought that was the best form of education - learning
for the sake of learning.
