Quotes Worth Pondering

"Those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the Earth are never alone or weary of life." ~ Rachel Carson

"Spirit is a vast and invisible energy field that we join with to dream the world into being. It is not a deity with human whims, moods, jealousies and temper tantrums like the Greek and Roman gods. Spirit does not ask you to sacrifice your firstborn child, or slay infidels, or destroy cities when citizens have lost their way. Spirit is the creative matrix that keeps life in the cosmos evolving and renewing itself." ~ Alberto Villaldo

"When we show our respect for other living things, they respond with respect for us." ~ Arapahoe Proverb

"I go to Nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order." ~ John Burroughs

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it--always.”

― Mahatma Gandhi
