1. I dream of freedom, daily.

2. People fight over two things:  Money. And power.

3. Your heart breaks a little each year your child grows older. Bitter. Sweet. And beautiful.

5. “Greatness and late rising are natural bedfellows. Late rising is for the independent of mind, the individual who refuses to become a slave to work, money, ambition. In his youth, the great poet of loafing, Walt Whitman, would arrive at the offices of the newspaper where he worked at around 11.30 a.m., and leave at 12.30 for a two-hour lunch break. Another hour’s work after lunch and then it was time to hit the town.”

–Tom Hodgkinson, How To Be Idle: A Loafer’s Manifesto (Amazon)

1. I’m done with cable. Netflix, HBO Now, and I’ll just buy everything else I want.

2. I want to interview a farmer, or two.
