Wendell Berry
“It is easy for me to imagine that the next great division of the world will be between people who wish to live as creatures and people who wish to live as machines.”
Wendell Berry, Life is a Miracle: An Essay Against Modern Superstition

Wendell Berry
“The shoddy work of despair, the pointless work of pride, equally betray Creation. They are wastes of life.”
Wendell Berry, What Are People For?
tags: work

Wendell Berry
“It is to be broken. It is to be
torn open. It is not to be
reached and come to rest in
ever. I turn against you,
I break from you, I turn to you.
We hurt, and are hurt,
and have each other for healing.
It is healing. It is never whole.”
Wendell Berry, The Collected Poems, 1957-1982

Wendell Berry
“It may be that when we no longer know what to do,
we have come to our real work
and when we no longer know which way to go,
we have begun our real journey.

The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.”
Wendell Berry

Wendell Berry
“Nobody can discover the world for somebody else. Only when we discover it for ourselves does it become common ground and a common bond and we cease to be alone.”
Wendell Berry, A Place on Earth
