Ecopsychology Books Quotes & Sayings

Each outing in a canoe is a journey of self-discovery. What person paddling across reflections in morning waters does not see the inner self?

The human race, to which so many of my readers belong, has been playing at children's games from the beginning, and will probably do it till the end, which is a nuisance for the few people who grow up. And one of the games to which it is most attached is called "Keep to-morrow dark," and which is also named (by the rustics in Shropshire, I have no doubt) "Cheat the Prophet."

Every relationship seems simple at its start. Two people listening to each other, two shells meeting each other, making one world between them. There are no others in the perfect unity of that instant, no other people or things or interests. It is free of ties or claims, unburdened by responsibilities, by worry about the future or debts to the past. And then how swiftly, how inevitably the perfect unity is invaded; the relationship changes; it becomes complicated, encumbered by its contact with the world. — Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Humble living does not diminish. It fills. Going back to a simpler self gives wisdom. — Rumi

The way Benny saw it, when your first memory was of zombies killing your parents, then you had a license to hate them as much as you wanted. — Jonathan Maberry
