Summary

This quote suggests that every task or effort we put into our work has a lasting impact. Like a seed that grows and multiplies, our work has the potential to spread and create further opportunities or consequences. This emphasizes the importance of being mindful and intentional in our actions, as the seeds we sow will eventually determine the outcome of our endeavors. Just as seeds naturally sow themselves, our work also has the power to propagate and produce future results, influencing both our own lives and the lives of others.

You see how this House of Commons has begun to verify all the ill prophecies that were made of it -- low, vulgar, meddling with everything, assuming universal competency, and flattering every base passion -- and sneering at everything noble refined and truly national.
