"I am more and more impressed with the moral qualities of vegetables and contemplate forming a science which rank with. comparative anatomy and comparative philology, - the science of comparative vegetable morality. We live in an age of protoplasm. And, if life matter is essentially the same in all forms of life, I suppose to begin early, and ascertain the nature of the plants for which I am responsible. I will not associate with any vegetable which is disreputable, or has not some quality that can contribute to my moral growth. I do not care to be seen much with the squashes or the dead-beets. Fortunately I can cut down any sorts I do not like with the hoe." from My Summer in a Garden by Charles Dudley Warner. Pretty little book with irregular DJ flaps. Gift quality.
