Quotes

"We have tranquilised ourselves into a state of unmindful production and over-consumption"
-Thich Nhat Hanh http://bit.ly/cR1V30  (@Guardian)

"Once all the rainforests are cut down, once all the rivers have dried up, and once all the resources are diminished, we will finally realize that we cannot eat money." - Unknown

“One of the great liabilities of history is that all too many people fail to remain awake through great periods of social change. Every society has its protectors of the status quo and its fraternities of the indifferent who are notorious for sleeping through revolutions. But today our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change.”
(From Martin Luther King, Jr's "Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?", 1967)
