“Once you understand the value of something good, it changes the way you consume that thing.”

“Thus you have a sea of adults on the internet, earnestly defending a system that has left generations of children alone in a terrifying, limitless, formless reality. We will soon have a world run by foundlings, orphaned by the abdication of authority.”
― My Dear Hemlock

“Maybe we don’t know much about food. Maybe we do. Maybe we are a cheerful follower of the newest final word on nutrition, or maybe we are cheerfully feeding our children out of the frozen meal section at Save-A-Lot. But whatever we eat, we are largely dependent on other people for our ingredients and our information. We may feel that we’re taking charge of our destinies by following a low-inflammation diet, but we are getting our ideas from fallible people. We may feel like we’re cultivated and discriminating consumers who only go for the best, but we are probably just choosing items that have been chosen for us—that the great machine of food industry picked out via consumer trials 15 months ago. And there’s no problem with this. It’s just that we shouldn’t forget it.”

“We want to walk into our local grocery store any time of the day, any day of the week, and pick up a red tomato. We want the certainty of knowing that a tomato is always within reach. In much the same way, we want the certainty of knowing that the answers to life’s questions are always within reach. When a problem or choice presents itself, we don’t want go through the growing process; we want an answer immediately. So just like we’re content with mealy, prepackaged tomatoes because they’re easy and readily available, we’re also content with mealy, prepackaged answers because they’re easy and readily available. But humility teaches us a better way. Humility teaches us to wait for God for answers. Humility teaches us to let knowledge ripen on the vine.”
