Many people think that when we practice agriculture, nature is helping us in our efforts to grow food. This is an exclusively human-centered viewpoint... we should instead, realize that we are receiving that which nature decides to give us. A farmer does not grow something in the sense that he or she creates it. That human is only a small part of the whole process by which nature expresses its being. The farmer has very little influence over that process... other than being there and doing his or her small part.

Ignorance, hatred and greed are killing nature.

The irony is that science has served only to show how small human knowledge is.

Giving up your ego is the shortest way to unification with nature.

If we throw mother nature out the window, she comes back in the door with a pitchfork.

I wonder how it is that people's philosophies have come to spin faster than the changing seasons.
