Come to think about it..
"At five years old , mortals are not prepared to be citizens of the world, to be stimulated by
abstract nouns, to soar above preference into impartiality; and that prejudice in favor of milk
with which we blindly begin, is a type of the way body and soul must get nourished at least
for a time. The best introduction to astronomy is to think of the nightly heavens as a little lot
of stars belonging to one's own homestead."
Daniel Derondo
George Eliot
