Indeterminacy 108

“Elizabeth,
it is a beautiful
day.
Let us take
a walk.
Perhaps we
will find some mushrooms.

If we do, we
shall pluck them and
eat them.” Betsy
Zogbaum asked Marian
Powys Grey whether
she knew the difference
between mushrooms
and toadstools.
“I
think I do.
But
consider, my dear,
how
dull life would be
without a
little uncertainty in it.”

- John Cage
