Aboriginal Country Quotes

“Maybe they should build a fence around these standing stones,” I suggested.

“Our people don't like fences. We think they might just make someone curious and want to jump over it.”

“It’s instinctive to want to be buried on the land you come from. It has energetic importance. Aboriginal people got their spiritual bearings by knowing their ancestors were in certain places. It is an energetic navigational system. We would do the same, if we are sufficiently connected to the land and our body. Anyone aware that from soil they come and to soil they will return remains deeply connected to their roots.”
― Donna Goddard, Nanima: Spiritual Fiction
