This was given to me by my first real girlfriend at Michigan State Univ. Years and years went by and every day I thought of her. She wrote in the book and it is the only surviving writing I have that she did. Therapy got me to where I let her go, but I look back fondly on this book.
"Epigrams from the Ming Dynasty 'Discourses on Vegetable Roots'. 'Only those who can appreciate the least palatable of vegetable roots know the meaning of life.' "
