“What role does a traditional Indigenous culture, or any local culture for that matter, have in a globalized, interconnected world?”
Wab Kinew, The Reason You Walk

“When I asked her once why she didn’t walk to the gym and do five minutes less on the treadmill, she looked at me as if I were being willfully provocative. “Because I have a program for the treadmill,” she explained. “It records my distance and speed, and I can adjust it for degree of difficulty.” It hadn’t occurred to me how thoughtlessly deficient nature is in this regard.”
Bill Bryson, A Walk in the Woods

Christopher McDougall
“From then on and for the rest of his life, Paddy’s motto was Solvitur ambulando: “When in doubt, walk.”
Christopher McDougall, Natural Born Heroes: Mastering the Lost Secrets of Strength and Endurance

Wab Kinew
“wise women and men have known for millennia: when we are wronged it is better to respond with love, courage, and grace than with anger, bitterness, and rage. We are made whole by living up to the best part of human nature—the part willing to forgive the aggressor, the part that never loses sight of the humanity of those on the other side of the relationship, and the part that embraces the person with whom we have every right to be angry and accepts him or her as a brother or sister.”
Wab Kinew, The Reason You Walk

“If a son helps his father when he is sick, then his son will help him when he is old.”
Wab Kinew, The Reason You Walk
