As it went dead and empty of the old life it became a place where no one wanted to live. In our right minds we want to seek out places that reek of complexity. Our drive to industrialize soured and undercut the intimacies that drew most people to country life in the first place Picture Quote #1

Some people prefer to learn by manipulating models, and others by reading Picture Quote #1
