"It does matter that I can remember how to build a fire, and
that I can remember how hot it burns when I do this or that. Those
experiences gave me a sure knowledge that the principles of
fire-building actually work. But for as much as I know that the principles are true...
"...the house is only as warm as the fire I build today.
"For me to have that fire within, I have to fuel it daily. And I have
learned for myself that neither memories of success nor good plans and
intentions are adequate fuel. I have to recur to the classics and be
daily reading from the works of those who are successful at doing what I
want to really fuel that fire."
~Rachel DeMille, "Kindling, Carrot Sticks and Kidschool"
