A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

Haha, mint was one of the things I accidentally eradicated once. I had planted it in a corner of the flower garden a few years earlier, and then decided it was too rampant, as it has spread into and among perennials. I had heard how hard it is to eradicate, so I thought if I just pulled up all that was visible and easy to get at, it would regrow only enough for our needs. So I spent a few minutes maybe an hour, crawling around under thorny roses, sure I couldn't get at it all. But not even a single shoot came back.
