Memory is good—it is a tool we can use. But it is to the spring like a bottle: what is stored quickly grows stale if not used—poured out—mixed with seeds or bodies or the air. It is necessary to keep in mind that the spring’s the source and our work is not to bottle but to put to work.

Metaphors—such as planting and harvesting—can open us only so far. From there we need imagination to bring out the real harvest, for the harvest is not from the ground on a limited ball, but from the imagination of a illimitable mind—and that mind is not singular but plural.

It is not just imagination seeding imagination, but the facts 1. Every common one of us has imagination and its products; 2. if we start with harvesting, we start with those products we already have (albeit usually unconsciously); and 3. these harvests harvesting will of their nature produce more and of higher quality.
