“Because by definition they lack any sense of mutuality or wholeness, our specializations subsist on conflict with one another. The rule is never to cooperate, but rather to follow one's own interest as far as possible. Checks and balances are all applied externally, by opposition, never by self-restraint. Labor, management, the military, the government, etc., never forbear until their excesses arouse enough opposition to force them to do so.” SelfEnoughGovernmentForceInterestMilitaryBalanceConflictLaborManagementEnvironmentalDefinitionsChecksOppositionEtcExcessSustainabilityWholenessRestraintSpecializationSelf Restraint Author:Wendell Berry

When I looked at different options after college, nobody inspired me more than the 18- and 19-year-olds who serve on the front lines of our nation's military.
