The Water and Stones

DateTuesday, April 3, 2012 at 07:58AM

We fill the hands and nurseries of our children with all manner of dolls, drums, and horses, withdrawing their eyes from the plain face and sufficing objects of nature, the sun, and moon, the animals, the water, and stones, which should be their toys.

--Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Poet

(via Zadi Diaz)
