“Go as far as you can see and you will see further.”
Zig Ziglar

Claire Holden Rothman
“Happiness is a strange thing. It is something I tend to recognize only after it has passed, when I realize I miss it.”
Claire Holden Rothman, The Heart Specialist

Wendell Berry
“People are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.”
Wendell Berry

Wendell Berry
“We Americans are not usually thought to be a submissive people, but of course we are. Why else would we allow our country to be destroyed? Why else would we be rewarding its destroyers? Why else would we all — by proxies we have given to greedy corporations and corrupt politicians — be participating in its destruction? Most of us are still too sane to piss in our own cistern, but we allow others to do so and we reward them for it. We reward them so well, in fact, that those who piss in our cistern are wealthier than the rest of us.

How do we submit? By not being radical enough. Or by not being thorough enough, which is the same thing.”
Wendell Berry

Wendell Berry
“Education has increasingly been reduced to job training, preparing young people not for responsible adulthood and citizenship but for expert servitude to the corporations.”
Wendell Berry, What Matters?: Economics for a Renewed Commonwealth
