My eyes followed that spiral, around and around, until - <i>pop! </i>- I actually went into the flower. </p> <p>What was it like in there? ...It was a subterranean cathedral made out of mathematics and honey, and occupied - this is the amazing part - by an almost palpable intelligence.</p> <p>You can't talk about something like that without sounding like a lunatic, but let me confess that when I learned that every daisy in every field possesses an identity just as strong as my own, it radically changed my life.  <p>Now, a man-made bean can is hardly a living plant, but what I've come to appreciate about inanimate objects, aside from their utilitarian beauty, is the whisper of the infinite in each and every one of them. </p> <p>I'd better shut up now before the woo-woo alarms go off.</p> <h4>~ from an interview in HT magazine June 2000</h4> </blockquote> <hr> <table border="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td width="14%"> <p align="left"><a href="../../quotes/barron.html"><Back</a></td> <td width="19%"> <p align="center"><a href="../../quotes.html">Quotes Menu</a></td> <td width="16%"> <p align="center"><a href="../../menu2.html">Menu 2</a></td> <td width="18%"> <p align="center"><a href="../../home.html">Main Menu</a></td> <td width="18%"> <p align="center"><a href="../../salvia.html">Salvia Menu</a></td> <td width="15%"> <p align="right"><a href="../../contact.html" title="contact details and links to information on salvia prices and availability">Contact</a></td> </tr> </table> </body>
