For only as we ourselves, as adults, actually move and have our being in the state of love, can we be appropriate models and guides for our children. What we are teaches the child far more than what we say, so we must be what we want our children to become. Joseph Chilton Pearce
A friend said, "Ah, I get it. All of my life I have gone into every next event asking, in effect, What's in it for me?

Joseph Chilton Pearce quote: "Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can..."
Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold. Joseph Chilton Pearce
Function and man appear synonymous because the function can only be pointed toward by being the function. There is no being except in a mode of being. [...] Both scholar and Christian are functioning in identical ways, just under different metaphor, and both are evading the mechanics of being. Joseph Chilton Pearce
