/         All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and   \
| how to be I learned in kindergarten.  Wisdom was not at the top of the   |
| graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at Sunday School.    |
| These are the things I learned:                                          |
|         Share everything.                                                |
|         Play fair.                                                       |
|         Don't hit people.                                                |
|         Put things back where you found them.                            |
|         Clean up your own mess.                                          |
|         Don't take things that aren't yours.                             |
|         Say you're sorry when you hurt someone.                          |
|         Wash your hands before you eat.                                  |
|         Flush.                                                           |
|         Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.                     |
|         Live a balanced life -- learn some and think some and draw and   |
| paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.               |
|         Take a nap every afternoon.                                      |
|         When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands,   |
| and stick together.                                                      |
|         Be aware of wonder.  Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam   |
| cup:  The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows    |
| how or why, but we are all like that.                                    |
|         Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in |
| the Styrofoam cup -- they all die.  So do we.                            |
|         And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the first word you |
| learned -- the biggest word of all -- LOOK.                              |
|         Everything you need to know is in there somewhere.  The Golden   |
| Rule and love and basic sanitation.  Ecology and politics and equality   |
| and sane living.                                                         |
|         [...] Think what a better world it would be if we all -- the     |
| whole world -- had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon  |
| and then lay down with our blankets for a nap.  Or if all governments    |
| had as a basic policy to always put things back where they found them    |
| and to clean up their own mess.                                          |
|         And it is still true, no matter how old you are -- when you go   |
| out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.         |
|                 -- Robert Fulghum, "All I Ever Really Needed to Know     |
\                    I Learned in Kindergarten"                            /
