In the same way that teenage idealists regularly abandon their dreams of creating a better world and come to accept the compromises of adult life at precisely the moment they marry and have children, caring for others, especially over the long term, requires maintaining a world that's relatively predictable as the grounds on which the caring can take place. One cannot save to ensure a college education for one's children unless one is sure in twenty years there will still be colleges-or for that matter, money. And that, in turn, means that love for others-people, animals, landscapes-regularly requires the maintenance of institutional structures one might otherwise despise."
