You're absolutely right sadlife, that is quite the poetic stance, I like it. You see, gimwinkle, literature and philosophy are not so different:
'To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour'
Or, as we would rather put it:
'To see a world in a box of rocks
And a Heaven in a little girl...'
Actually, William Blake was very obsessed with the philosophical importance of the child.
Food for thought...
