[Dialogue] The "Springboard Gathering" - Quotes to consider

[Janice Ulangca]

David and all,

Here are a couple of quotes to add to your thinking.  They were compiled for a just-completed ecumenical series based on the book The Chaos Point.

Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances. 

That's not for human beings.
Move within, but don't move the way fear makes you move.

Jelalludin Rumi, poet, theologian, Sufi mystic, lived 1207-1273 in what is now 

 Afghanistan, Turkey, and Iran.

 

We are reclaiming a world precariously on the edge. We take action not with arrogance and certainty, but with humility and uncertainty. It is our giving that counts - not our success. But in selfless giving, we have victories. And through everyday actions, we reweave the web of life.

Vandana Shiva, in Earth Democracy: Justice, Sustainability, and Peace, South End Press, 2005. A physicist and environmental activist from India, she won the 1993 Liveability Award, called "the alternative Nobel prize".
