“Show me a person without prejudice of any kind on any subject and I'll show you someone who may be admirably virtuous but is surely no gardener.

Gardening is complicated, and prejudice simplifies it enormously.” PeopleKindMayPersonsShowsVirtueSubjectsHealthyPrejudiceChaosComplicatedComplexityGardeningVirtuousShow MeGardenerSimplify Author:Allen Lacy
