Live "with" the World

“The single greatest lesson the garden teaches is that our relationship to the planet need not be zero-sum, and that as long as the sun still shines and people still can plan and plant, think and do, we can, if we bother to try, find ways to provide for ourselves without diminishing the world. ”

Michael Pollan (born 1955); Author, activist

Balance!

“Ours is a binary universe; yes and no, stop and go, up and down, in and out, yin and yang, etc. What should we come to understand by all this? The universe is always seeking a balance or equilibrium. As part of the universe, we too are seeking balance. Balance is the secret to life if there ever was one, and moderation is the sec...ret to balance.”

—Edmond Danken Sailer (1962; Poet, Philosopher
