Emily Dickinson
“To see her is a picture—
To hear her is a tune—
To know her an Intemperance
As innocent as June—
To know her not—Affliction—
To own her for a Friend
A warmth as near as if the Sun
Were shining in your Hand.”
Emily Dickinson, The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson

Wendell Berry
“Whether we and our politicians know it or not, Nature is party to all our deals and decisions, and she has more votes, a longer memory, and a sterner sense of justice than we do.”
Wendell Berry

Samuel Bowles
“The political perspective of this book, ironically, is the progeny of the progressive potential of capitalism as an historical system. The joint possibility of universal material well-being and the democratization of society is a product of the capitalist era. But the history of capitalism is a chronicle of the tension between possibilities and limits: democracy and universal affluence in perpetual and ubiquitous conflict with class domination - itself a product of the social organization of capitalist production.”
Samuel Bowles, Schooling in Capitalist America: Educational Reform and the Contradictions of Economic Life

Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling
“This is not the time to reawaken old oppositions, but rather to seek what lies above and beyond all opposition.”
Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling

Wendell Berry
“A corporation, essentially, is a pile of money to which a number of persons have sold their moral allegiance.”
Wendell Berry
