I grew up in a utopia, I did. California when I was a child was a child's paradise, I was healthy, well fed, well clothed, well housed. I went to school and there were libraries with all the world in them and after school I played in orange groves and in Little League and in the band and down at the beach and every day was an adventure.. .. I grew up in utopia. Kim Stanley Robinson
About This Quote

If there was an ideal place to live, it would be California. It is the land of opportunity, where one can work hard and become successful. It is where dreams come true. There are no limitations in this state.

There are orange groves, beaches, and all the wonders of nature. The only problem with utopia is that it is not real.
