"Even though I am on the garden committee, I will not cut grass. Grass is useless. I won’t have anything to do with grass. It’s neutral. It does nothing. It’s some American fetish. People act as if having a lawn means you’re a good person ... that you’re neat because your grass is neat. It doesn’t mean that at all. It means for some reason you have a fetish about grass. Cutting grass reminds me of those old butch haircuts in the ‘50s that I hated. It’s some weird status symbol. From an ecological point of view, it’s doing nothing. People need to understand that." - Father Ted Baenziger CSB
