More From Karl Popper

There's a tree that grows in brooklyn. some people call it the tree of heaven. no matter where its seed falls, it makes a tree which struggles to reach the sky. it grows in boarded-up lots and out of neglected rubbish heaps. it grows up out of cellar gratings. it is the only tree that grows out of cement. it grows lushly . . . survives without sun, water, and seemingly without earth. it would be considered beautiful except that there are too many of it.
Beautiful Growing Up Struggle
Moss grows where nothing else can grow. it grows on bricks. it grows on tree bark and roofing slate. it grows in the arctic circle and in the balmiest tropics; it also grows on the fur of sloths, on the backs of snails, on decaying human bones. ... it is a resurrection engine. a single clump of mosses can lie dormant and dry for forty years at a stretch, and then vault back again into life with a mere soaking of water.

Be proud of your mistakes. well, proud may not be exactly the right word, but respect them, treasure them, be kind to them, learn from them. and, more than that, and more important than that, make them. make mistakes. make great mistakes, make wonderful mistakes, make glorious mistakes. better to make a hundred mistakes than to stare at a blank piece of paper too scared to do anything wrong.

Country Kids Thinking
To begin with, our knowledge grows in spots. the spots may be large or small, but the knowledge ever grows all over... what you first gain from them is probably a small amount of new information, a few new definitions, or distinctions, or points of view. but while these special ideas are being added, the rest of your knowledge stands still, and only gradually will you 'line up' your previous opinions with the novelties i am trying to instil, and modify to some slight degree their mass.

The value that i found in interviewing was for an educational experience, just to know that history itself is subjective, that you can't say, "it happened." do the best you can with what you think happened, but a lot of other people are going to see it happening differently.
Educational Thinking People
The parent-child relationship in the home usually reflects the objective cultural conditions of the surrounding social structure. if the conditions which penetrate the home are authoritarian, rigid, and dominating, the home will increase the climate of oppression. as these authoritarian relations between parents and children intensify, children in their infancy increasingly internalize the paternal authority.
