Miodrag Majić
“Kulturom koju smatramo dominantnom, superiornijom i time opravdanom, ušli smo kao bagerima u porcelanski život jedne male siromašne romske porodice. Ali ne samo to. Kad smo porušili to što su generacije njihovih predaka stvarale, kad smo ih kaznili zbog nečega što smo smatrali neprirodnim i grešnim, više nismo uspeli da im pokažemo put ka obećanoj sreći. Umesto toga, učinili smo isto što i prvi doseljenici američkim Indijancima. Nakon što su im porušili sela i proterali ih, ostavili su ih na milost i nemilost novim navikama - alkoholu, drogama i prostituciji. [...] To je puna i potpuna jednačina u kojoj je jedna kultura, u ime sopstvenog shvatanja pravde, kažnjavala drugu kulturu zbog njenog navodno učinjenog nedela.”
Miodrag Majić, Ostrvo pelikana

Mark Manson
“Travel is a fantastic self-development tool, because it extricates you from the values of your culture and shows you that another society can live with entirely different values and still function and not hate themselves. This exposure to different cultural values and metrics then forces you to reexamine what seems obvious in your own life and to consider that perhaps it’s not necessarily the best way to live.”
Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life

Robin Wall Kimmerer
“Imagine that while our neighbors were holding a giveaway, someone broke into their home to take whatever he wanted. We would be outraged at the moral trespass. So it should be for the earth. The earth gives away for free the power of wind and sun and water, but instead we break open the earth to take fossil fuels. Had we taken only that which is given to us, had we reciprocated the gift, we would not have to fear our own atmosphere today.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants
