This world is all ours, belonging to each of us: swan, crane, walrus, wren, dog, muskrat, saxifrage, pine, polar bear, you, me. But too many of us have relinquished our hold on the natural world and turned toward power and the ownership of things. The circuit that binds air to ocean, river to mountain, snowdrift to glacier, ice to water, flows through each of us. … Beauty streams through us, inside and out, the way waves and skeins of radiant energy from the sun give us life. - Gretel Ehrlich
To change one's life: Start immediately.
Do it flamboyantly. No exceptions. - William James
We are at liberty to be real or unreal. We may be true or false. The choice is ours. We may wear now one mask and now another, and never if we so desire, appear with our own true face. But we cannot make these choices with impunity. Causes have effects. And if we lie to ourselves and to others, then we cannot expect to find truth and reality whenever we happen to want them. - Thomas Merton
