Poetics

I want a revolution,
so I will plant a garden.

I want to change the world,
so I will plant a garden.

"The more people do, the more society develops, the more problems arise. The increasing desolation of nature, the exhaustion of resources, the uneasiness and disintegration of the human spirit, all have been brought about by humanity's trying to accomplish something. Originally there was no reason to progress, and nothing that had to  be done. We have come to the point at which there is no other way than to bring about a 'movement' not to bring anything about." --Masanobu Fukuoka, The One Straw Revolution
