The Botany of Desire . Michael Pollan . PBS

"We are not simply standing outside of the web of life. We are part of that web of life. And that everything we do... what we choose to eat. What flowers we to put on our table. What drugs we choose to take. These are evolutionary votes we are casting every day." - Michael Pollan



I wanted to read this book, but it's now a PBS movie so I watched it online. Definitely worth checking out. I think Pollan is so eloquent and he definitely knows his stuff. I was trying to write down some of his quotes... too many good ones and I may not have gotten the one quoted above 100% correct, but you get the point. Check it out.
