[Dialogue] town meeting quote

[R Williams]

The quote as it appears in the LENS Facilitators Manual is, "What appears to be a breaking down of civilization may well be simply the breaking up of old forms by life itself."  It is attributed to Joyce Carol Oates.

It is good to "hear" your voice, Colleen.  Isn't it interesting how quotes seem to go around and come around again? And, they are still so relevant.

Hi, 
>does anyone know the correct qote that goes soething like  "What appears to be the breaking up of civiliztion is the emergence of new forms by life itself.  I realize I have the quote somewhat garbled.  It was on one of the posters we hung when doing Town Meetings in the States.  I would also like to know the atribution of the quote.  I asm currently dowing some writng for a local group and that quote seems to be very appropriate to the conversation.
