Richard Powers
“There are a hundred thousand species of love, separately invented, each more ingenious than the last, and every one of them keeps making things.”
Richard Powers, The Overstory

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Wer fremde Sprachen nicht kennt, weiß nichts von seiner eigenen.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Gabriel García Márquez
“El secreto de una buena vejez no es mas que un pacto honrado con la soledad.”
Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Cien Anos De Soledad/ One hundred Years of Solitude: Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Compendios Vosgos

“Teach the children. We don't matter so much, but the children do. Show them daisies and the pale hepatica. Teach them the taste of sassafras and wintergreen. The lives of the blue sailors, mallow, sunbursts, the moccasin flowers. And the frisky ones – inkberry, lamb's-quarters, blueberries. And the aromatic ones – rosemary, oregano. Give them peppermint to put in their pockets as they go to school. Give them the fields and the woods and the possibility of the world salvaged from the lords of profit. Stand them in the stream, head them upstream, rejoice as they learn to love this space they live in, its sticks and leaves and then the silent, beautiful blossoms.

Attention is the beginning of devotion.”
Mary Oliver, Upstream: Selected Essays

Confucius
“The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their proper name.”
Confucius
