It takes weeks or months where I agonize and obsess over which to do next. I wish sometimes someone would choose for me. If someone said, Do idea number three next, that would be fine.

“Romance is the truth of imagination and boyhood. Homer's horses clear the world at a bound. The child's eye needs no horizon to its prospect. The oriental tale is not too vast. Pearls dropping from trees are only falling leaves in autumn. The palace that grew up in a night merely awakens a wish to live in it. The impossibilities of fifty years are the commonplaces of five.” WorldNeedsYearsChildrenEyeRomanceNightFallWishImaginationClearFiveTreeGrewGrew UpHorseBoundsTalesFiftyAutumnHorizonPearlsImpossibilityPalacesDroppingCommonplaceBoyhoodFalling Leaves Book:Pleasures,objects and advantages of literature Source: Pleasures,objects and advantages of literature

“Human beings, because we're so clever, have removed every single one of those population limiting factors... So nothing controls our increase in numbers except our own wish. Since I first started making television programs, the population of the world has increased three times. That's an extraordinary notion. Can it increase four times? Can it increase five times? The Earth is a finite size. So a point will eventually come when we run out of food, when we run out of space and when we will have destroyed most of the natural world.
