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 a basic policy to always put things back where they found them and to clean up their own messes. 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.
